Dave, thanks for posting the pictures with captions of the VF Cargo trucks. They’re really interesting; I ended up looking at the entire album and look forward to seeing the continuing project. Here are some comments and a passel of questions:
•I like the Speedy-sleeve installation tool.
•How did you clean up the brass identification Budd tag on the cargo bed?
•That methods did you use for rust removal besides sandblasting?
•Picture 233 shows the spring assy's for the patina truck. They look good, what has been done to them? Were they re-arched? How were they cleaned?
•The Sampson Trackers look good, so do the Nutech N300 Super Tractions.
•Are you using the Rust Fix as a clear coat on the Patina truck, and how well does it hold up to UV from the sun?
•Does the 265 have sodium cooled valves?
