Long Time Lurker
Against a lot of advice of people in this forum I decided to hack up the dash for a radio (not willing to drop big money on a retrofit with bluetooth and half the features), so I'm not doing a great job so far; definitely keeping the inline 6 though, it's interesting enough since not a lot of...- WamboJambo

Long Time Lurker
Hey all! I've been around for about a year and kept waiting until my truck reaches a "presentable" status to make an introduction post, but let's be real; that day will never come and I'd like to actually be a participating member of this great community.

So are the exhaust manifolds not the...- WamboJambo

Painting Steel Bumpers
Thanks for the welcome! I'll make a proper "Introduction" post once I get some pictures together.. Thanks for the info CSFJ; unfortunately I used a urethane primer instead of epoxy since it was "self-etching".. not sure if that means I have to paint over it unlike the epoxy primer? I'm new...- WamboJambo

Painting Steel Bumpers
So I've been in the process of stripping off all the rust and repainting all the stock white painted steel sections of my 78 C10 that would normally be chromed (it was an absolute base model), e.g. bumpers, mirrors, and rims. Now that I'm to the bumpers, I'm curious if it's necessary to paint...- WamboJambo
