That first pic looks WAY too familiar. I bought a reman as well (autozone). $800 bucks was a lot cheaper than the GM blocks for $1600. (would of loved to have one, but a budget is a budget). My uncle was kind enough to pressure wash mine. I then used a drill to wire brush the frame. A coat of spray can primer and black paint. I went a little more in depth though. When I had the motor out I tore the entire suspension apart. Clean, sanded, primed and painted everything, added power disks, and bought all new suspension components (ball joints, tie rods etc...) Good luck gettin 'er all back together.
