So sending it out unpainted? For the new owner.. Try and find a local fab shop that will galvanize for you. And then you can paint over the top of that. eliminateing future rust issues.

Yes, uncoated....Well my local powder coater seems to be going out of business (good riddance---HIGHWAY ROBBERY).. closest galvanizer is in SLC IIRC, 170+ miles away.. Not very cost effective for the end user.

So for now its bare metal products leaving my shop unless someone wants Monstaliner coating.

I'm looking into building a PC oven, but I'm runnning out of time in the day/week to do things...

No rust issues here either.. We like the cooler weather.. I voted Oregon, Washington or Wisconsin and the voted for Oregon, NY or Maine. So, who knows.. I hope Oregon or Wisconsin is in our "by end of year" plans...

Well, Jas wants an 80 rear and you want a 60 rear... If you both buy in the next 2-3 weeks, I'll meet one of you in Midland or San Angelo... It'll give me a reason to go see "the rents" and do some bidness as well.

Noted Oaks, thanks for the tip. Maybe I'll have'em dip the whole rig while I'm at it

On another note, Jason has been super professional and a pleasure to do business with! Kept me posted, as he did you all every step of the way.
Here's to great success with your new venture J.
Cheers to Trail Tailor!
