2 quick questions?


Some of you guys might remember that my frame is in my metal shop  well i got the frame back in one piece  and straight and square  the whole section from the back to the front on the drivers side is brand new  just need to do the passanger side um here is the first question  what is the best kind of paint to put on my frame to protect it from rust  now on?
Second question i got some nice rims from frank(69-tin indian) this summer and was wondering how i could get the old tires off them without using a machine? and damaging the rims?

Car Quest has the same as POR15, called Trailer Chassis Black for less,(Cheaper) or they have POR15     
Just remember to use it all in one job..  If you put cover back on, it will "never" come off!!!!!!!

I know some truck rebuilders, who buy GM rubberized undercoating to do the frames (cheaper)   

1. take the rims to school and de-mount?   

2.  Bring top my house, and I will break down with a Duckbill tire sledge

You can ONLY use POR-15 (Paint Over Rust) on rusty metal. It bonds with rust, and not with clean non-rusty metal. Clean non-rusty metal you can paint the normal way (primer & paint).

I used the Eastwood products. I sprayed there Rust encapsulator and then there chassis black. So far so good. My son Powdercoated his 67 camaro subframe. Looks good also but can get pricy.

I used Tremclad black. It's not a show car so I wire-wheeled it the best I could, cleaned it with a good cleaner, then sprayed it on with an undercoating gun. It's kinda thick with a rough texture so maybe brushing would have been a better idea???

so if im going to sandblast my frame i dont want to use POR-15 ?

the underneath of my 69 looks to be a semi gloss finish,or little bit glossier than satin,,as far as i know im going to paint the frame and the firewall and the underbody with the same ?

is there a certin type of paint and finish you guys use?

i notice willie uses some type of sealer after sandblasting  a frame?  looks like army green,then primes and paints them.

Here is how I get old tires off the rims, the old back yard mechanic way. A bumper jack and a truck bumper to break the beeds.  A liitle sweat and its off.  It is faster to take to a tire shop and less sweat. Any one else ever do this or am I the only idiotsmile.gif

I hope the school has a tire machine. That looks like far too much work.

i used to change the tires on my motorcycles all the time especially at the track. last year i went to change the rear, after i grabbed the tire spoons, coveralls, mop bucket filled w/ soapy water, fired up the compressor, sweated out in the back yard for 5 mins. i then tossed the rear wheel into the box of the beast to drop off at a bike shop and head to timmies.

nb thats why the jack has a curved lip for breaking beads. very old school.

I  have an old manual bead breaker that my father had. It works, and when I was young and had no money I used it to install 4 new tires on the 72 Impala I had at the time (still had to have the garage bubble balance them though). But it was hard work - this bumper jack method looks a lot easier.
