As I begin my build I return to yours and a few others time and time again for guidance. Thanks for sharing. As I read through yours again I will have some questions. Hopefully you will have time and the patience to keep me headed in the right direction. How did the the powdercoating cost compare to your other paint options? Was there an discernible difference in the color resulting from the powder coating being done at different times?Disassembly
Why the fordCurrent state of the frame.
Have to finish removing the pass shock tower and installing matching ford tower.
Rear spring hangers are rotten and PO did a number on the rear cross member. I have a replacement rear frame section I picked up from classic cruisers. As soon as those two things are done off to the blaster. Still trying to decide weather to galvanize powder coat or both. If I galvanize and don't powder coat I would still want a black finish so maybe paint? I can get galvanizing done for $50 for 100lbs so I'm thinking 150 bucks. Thoughts on this? I personally don't believe warping is an issue.

Why the Ford Shock Tower?
It was great meeting you Roma and seeing your truck in person. Thanks for leading the trail runs. We're already looking forward to next year, hopefully we'll see you there again.
It's fine for local driving but lacks power compared to my 12ht 60 so I have a 12ht I'm going to drop in this truck when time permits.Great build, are you still happy with the 3B-T and H55 combo ?
@roma042987 any plans to be out in Arizona anytime soon? Tom
Yep I'll be there Tuesday
