Re: Carolina K10, 1979 Reg cab short bed.

As for the frame... while all that was going on I had a can of oven cleaner, degreaser, and a couple of bottles of purple power in my arsenal...

I don't know what this stuff is but its on there like white on rice...






I painted the frame with VHT chassis and rollbar paint and some Duplicolor self etching primer. The primer isn't necessary but I did it anyway.

First coat of primer



2 coats



And 2 coats of the chassis paint.








I might pull the front axle out while everything is taken apart and service/paint it... That's a job in itself but it has to be done.
