It is finally a roller. Painted my frame after a complete rebuild. Rebuilt springs, new pins and bushings, new kingpins, all new brake parts, master cylinder and tubing. 9" Ford diff and finally two coats of '04 chebby Cobalt blue paint. And a set of wheels thanks to Ross (ALBUQ-F1).

Now I can roll the frame out and bring in my cab and put it up on the rotisseri.

 

very nice and looks like you are well equipped for truck work.

 

Great! Love the color!!! What's next...body?

 

Looking good! You and Tinman need to get together when it's done for a photo opportunity!

 

Very Nice!

 

I need a work truck like that! My poor 1992 F150 is just not cutting it anymore.

 

Nice color. Looks awesome.

 

Wow! that looks fantastic!!!

Very nice

Really nice looking frame, the color looks good on it.

 

Looks good.
I got another one you can paint.
What are you going to do for a drivetrain? I can see that the rear is no longer factory.

 

Thanks for all the comments. My plans are to start on the cab now, then the drivetrain. I plan on putting the original flathead V8 and three speed on the tree back in. Then the final color will be lime green.

Not quite sure what the rear end is from but I was told by the junkyard it was from a mid '70s F100 with 3.73 gears. It has bolted right in except for the spring U-bolts. It looks like the shocks will bolt right in also although I haven't fit any on there yet.

 

I have 2 extra stock Dana 41's with 3.73's, but we're a tad distance apart from each other. I'm sure the one you have is better anyway.

 

Wouldn't say mine is better. It was pretty rusty inside. I cleaned it up the best I could and we will see how noisy it is when I get it on the road.

 

That blue frame looks great. Congrats on your progress!!
