My truck won't have the dramatic Before and after shots but this thread makes me want to strip it down, visit the powdercoater, and reassemble as new. The body on my rig is straight and clean, the undercarriage however is a whole different story. I'll post some pics that I will take tonight to show you guys. The original owner took great care of this truck but, had a diesel tank in the bed which I'm guessing leaked pretty bad. The underside of my Highboy has a good 3/4 inch of gunk from stem to stern. I plan on getting under there with a small putty knife and start the heavy removal but my goal is to strip the truck to the frame, sandblast, and powder coat the frame and the running gear. Good news about the nearly 1" of crap caked on the frame is, the frame has been pretty well preserved and has only small patches of surface rust here and there.
All I see trucks jacked up, fat tires and engines covered with chrome.
That's why I want a separate area for trucks rescued and returned to
factory specs. All that custom stuff was either sold or tossed on my 75.

Question; Can you read the speedometer with the new steering wheel? My 75 had one.
I bought a stock steering wheel for $20 at a local swap meet. Same with the air
cleaner and valve covers. The stock ones will be powder coated Ford blue. Same
with the air cleaner.
