    Eastwood Versus POR15

    Wire brushed my frame, degreased, black epoxy primer, Magnet Chassis black, on clear coat, but I should have, ran out of time. Used POR15 on the 55 panel engine bay, completely chalked out in five years, repainted after prep with Duplicolor and has worked well.

    Old Bedliners

    Mine was a little different in the 73 K20, but when I started my build, I pulled it, and there was quite a bit of rust.....I will Rhino line it like I did on the 85 when it is finished. Grandson learning to Rhino line, this is underneath.

They really hauled butt too, cause they were both turboed and supercharged. I hated the 6.2 in the C20...

    8 lug slots...?

    I agree, they did everything for me for years, tractor, truck, car pickup. A few years age needed tires for the Buick, they were **** lasted less then 30000, so took the car back, and no warranty. Had one replaced that was really bad, full price. So while I was there I looked for a us based...
