Re: Spray Day
I spent the day powerwashing the frame and then using some paint stripper to get the real yucky stuff off. Look what I found under the paint by the passenger side rear of the subframe. It looks like it was hand-printed with a magic marker "5236 44." Does this correspond to anything?

Re: Spray Day
And here is a close up of the front coil spring. As you can see it was painted black originaly and still has the part number tag attached, #3988100 AX. Does anyone know if this tag is reproduced? I couldnt find it on Jim Osborn's site.

Re: Spray Day
I spent some time hand washing the spindles today, trying to preserve the original paint marks. It seems that the spindles have some type of grey phosphate coating on them. After using a toothbrush and some watered down detergent, here are the results. This is the driver's side spindle with its green paint mark.
