Ok, this is different but very cool. I always wanted to do one of these; keep us updated so we can see the finished product.

Yes Sir.I know in many ways this project is not the main stream here.But in many respects the topics are very much alike.I do value you guys input given the type of work you guys do and hope to get help in many,many areas of this van's restro and paint and interior.Questions about power trains too.

So here is the first one.For a daily driver like this one and wanting to have the same color yellow as the color of the van,would you guys suggest power coating is a good idea for the sub frame??.Some have told me it is tons harder to repair if scratched and once scratched will rust quicker.
