Removed front and rear suspension from the frame, then separated the frame from the body.
While cleaning up the frame I found the VIN, stamped twice, and frame info. The frame restored to black. |

Pressure washed the underside, plenty of factory blue over spray with faded primer and some light surface rust.
Prepping the floor and firewall. Found the paint/roof trim code on firewall. Underside finished in red epoxy primer. Done, complete with blue over spray, undercoating and fresh black firewall. |

Everything installed on the frame and detailed
Getting the frame in position and reattached Cleaned and rebuilt the rear end. That positrac fluid tag on the drain plug is the original one, both it and the drain plug were buried under about one inch of crud. |

GM used also that limited slip red plastic tag on their trucks in that era. My '70 Blazer has the same thing on it's 12 bolt.
