1968 F100

I've been doing some work on my 1968 F100 and I thought you guys might like to see what I've done so far.

You can see more photos on my album. I'm not very good at sorting the photos, but I'll try to keep things up better from here on in.

Here are a few before photos of the passenger's side.




Over 10 years ago I had a patch welded in just so I could get it through inspection. The time had come to do it properly.





As you can see it was badly rusted.

2 spray bombs of Rangoon Red later. The areas I didn't paint will be sprayed with rubberized undercoating.

Looking great Trent. I assume the areas you sprayed with the undercoating are areas that may be subject to road abrasions?

Yes. I prepped and coated everything with POR15 then primed the areas to be painted with POR15 etching primer and sprayed rubberized undercoating everywhere else. I'm building IT to drive it and I don't want to deal with the rust ever again.
