It's only the frame but I am excited anyway.

I can't Imagine what the excitement going to be when painting the body.

I am pretty happy with the results so far (especially since it's my first time with a spray gun) used Eastwood's platinum rust encapsulator.
Hopefully top coating tomorrow, with extreme chassis satin black.

That looks real good, the top coat should look great.

What kind of paint will you be using? I would recommend a urethane for the frame. The frame takes more abuse than the body. At least the body gets washed from time to time. How often does the frame get washed.

I wouldn't recommend urethane, its really UV protection, I don't think the sun will shine to much on the frame. I would epoxy it..

Very nice work .Looking forward to see more of the restoration.

Topcoat is Eastwood extreme chassis black.
Found out the hard way about properly cleaning the spray gun. (Took an hour to clean it properly) thought I did last night

That is a great deal. If I didn't have a project going now I would be all over that. Someone is going to get a fantastic deal.
