Truck looks great. I especially like the stop light as you installed it. I will start my 52 FFPW and plan to use my pressure washer with the sand blast attachment to remove paint (only some surface rust where bed rubbed cab). We restored my brothers John Deere water/sand blasting to bare metal, some powder rust appears but in the humid air here every thing rusts unless in climate controlled garage. We used a primer from American Coatings in Tomball, Texas, they call it a Rust Stop Primer or something (used in the Oil Field and Petro Chemical Plants). You can paint over rusty surface as long as all loose scale is removed. Some spare items we primed but not used and no top coat applied about 5 years ago, sitting outside in rain and dew are still rust free. The top coat of the tractor is like the day we painted it sitting in his three sided shed.
