if you are going to do a FULL off body restoration. Ensurethe frame os EXACTLY like tye frame will be like when the truck is done, all holes drilled, filled, etc. Then take the frame to a shop that KNOWS what they are doing in the field of doing a restoration, them have the frame powder coated. it will last longer than the origanal frame caoting, that is for sure..

Thanks for the reply's ....... i was thinking about using some stuff called POR 15 , around here the off road guys sware by it, tough, dureable, and highly scratch resistant.
And since mine will be mostly a show n shine kinda build i thought i'de try it.
Powder coat out here is $ 1000
That was a great idea to fill all the holes in the frame that will not be used, it will make for a lot cleaner looking frame.
Thanks again

I due originality, but I am not sure if you are talking old cars or your ranger. I am starting a frame off resto of my Cadillac this winter. I will have the frame blasted primed painted and undercoated just like it was from the factory. I will also use a lot of filler to smooth out the pitting from the 31 MN winters. Although it hasn't seen snow since 1992

No problem, in the most recent season of trucks they did a rebuild on an S-10 and they used POR on the frame.
Here is the website. The stuff isn't cheap, but it should work for protecting the frame.
