I'll just skip ahead. The majority of the DSE Quadra-link is welded in place. The inner and outer wheelhouses, quarters, tail panel etc. is all screwed into place and fit up. A few more things to check and then I'll blow is back apart for the last time, button up some welds and then put everything back permanently.

Looks great, Brandon. Did you do anything to treat the metal that's hidden, like the inside of the frame rails, since you had access to some of it?

The Dynacorn parts either come coated with their weld-thru or the standard new part black (probably crappy - primer). Where I was going to weld or had ground, I either used weld-thru primer or in some cases used epoxy primer.

Could I have coated it more uniformly and thoroughly, probably yes........ Much of the framerails gets welded on to install the DSE stuff and what I had sprayed on the inside of the rails was burning back off in those areas. I may coat the inside of them with

We've used it with some success in the past. I would do this once it is on the rotisserie so that I can spray it from multiple angles etc..

Wow, Loads of progress! Your work is looking great, almost looks like a car again. Did you get the lower link mounts welded in yet? The directions are kind of odd there. I had to call and double check a few measurements with dse.
