I'm still waiting for parts to be able to make the frame a roller. CURRECTRAC rear control arms have been on order for 3 weeks and my spindles are at Kore3 for custom brakes. I did get the frame painted. Here are some before and after pictures.
The ugly before
Cleaned
Epoxy Primed
Eastwood Ceramic Chassis Paint- Warning this is nasty stuff, if you can't ventilate extremely well, don't use it. It contains iso-cyanides.
I screwed up when drilling for the cross member and didn't get it straight. In any event I had decided that I needed to bolt the cross member directly to the frame. I don't think rubber mounts are a good idea when the engine mounts and the transmission to cross member mount is poly. To much flexing could break the transmission. This also solves the clearance issue with the transmission lines hitting the floor. This mod gives a 1/4" of additional clearance
The other item, look at my transmission. Part of it is black and part looks unpainted. The unpainted part was black until I used compressed air to clean the dust off. The paint came off in big sheets. The part that is still painted, I prepped myself as I had to swap the bell housing, the paint on the rest of the transmission was incompatible with the black paint I used.
