69 coronet suspension detail thread? - 12/25/10 08:43 PM

a week or two ago there was a thread on detailing a 69 coronet front suspension. I forgot to favorite it and now I can't find it. Does anyone have a link to it? Thanks and Merry Christmas.

Here is what I did about 5 years ago or so on my 69 R/T. Bear in mind I am in no way saying this is the most correct end all of restorations. All parts I brought over to my buddy's radiator shop and personally bead blasted for weeks.
Then:
K-Frame was powder coated 45% gloss Black
Lower radiator support bracket 45% gloss Black
Shocks painted with Eastwood Underhood Black
Radiator support "BLACKOUT" was painted from bottom up with Eastwood Underhood Black.
Upper and lower control arms painted with Seymour Stainless Steel Paint
Lower control Arm then sprayed with Cosmoline.
Centerlink and Strut Rods painted with Eastwood Spray Gray
Tie-rods and pitman/idler arm Stainless with some Spray Gray
Adjustment sleeves Under Hood Black
Powder coated sway-bar Gloss Black trying to simulate cheap black paint but didn't work-out well.
Sway-bar brackets Stainless Steel Paint (I think wrong and should have been Black)
Bumper brackets Powder coated 45% Black
Backing plates Powder coated 45% Black etc...

Hope this helps. Ron
