Glad to see we're all getting along haha.
Cheeto, are you going to powder coat the frame or just paint? POR15 or what? I'm pretty sure it was you who said something about powder coating.
And whats the final word on the bed? You mentioned it being too tall before..

Id like to powder it but its gonna be a pain. Id have to get it hauled to the guy to sandblast it then haul it back home for final welding then strip it down and haul the bare frame back to powder it. Prolly be easier to just por15 it.

i did the frame on my 88 with 2 coats of rustoleum heavy rust red oxide primer thinned with 15% acetone, followed 2 days later with 3 coats of rustoleum gloss black pro paint thinned 15% acetone, both being sprayed on with an automotive spray gun.
this 5 coat paint job resulted in almost 1/16 inch of paint covering the frame.

Feeling better and a bit more chipper/fiesty again Dave? At least it looks like you decided to man-up and keep the real truck
That will open up a few spots over there, so I'll send some to you to replace those. Lord knows we've got more than you guys. Plus they seem to let them vote around here so they keep our goobernment officials from upholding the law like they were smart enough to choose to do over there
