    Preparation

    Rodney spent four hours with de-greaser, and a high pressure washer, which heats the water....(needs to be very hot)....It takes a lot of work to get rid of 30years of dust and grease etc. build up especially around the front end and gear box area. When totally dry he then sprayed the under neath with a two pack clear primer rust inhibitant, and then approx. 2 coats of GMH black was painted on. Quote from rodney "It wouldn't be hard to do a better job than holden I found so many paint runs on chassis it was incredible"

    Well worth the effort!!:lol::lol:
    I'm tipping Rodney was glad to get upright again after all that.
