This truck means a lot to me and its been in my family since new so I want to do it right and honor the truck. And it's the first truck I ever drove.

My dad purchased this truck sometime in the early 90's from his 2nd cousin who has since passed. Its certifiably all original aside from the paint. Its a 1970 k20 with a 292 sm465 imguessing and factory lock out hubs. 214,xxx on odometer and it runs. Needs very little sheet metal wise. My question is what is the proper way yo restore the frame? Blast without disassembly or take it completely apart?
