It's interesting I just posted about frames asking what to paint them with. I was told, and took the advice, and bought a gallon of Eastwood.

But since we're showing off frames I thought I would show a before picture. I only hope there will be an after picture.

While we're on the subject: I live in the desert and it gets hot. For many years I had taken the tires off and covered them in the truck bed. I had to move the frame for some construction and I'm going to move it back. Rather than put it back up on jacks is there something I can do to save the tires? It's got to remain outside for a while. Some one told me you can rub brake fluid on the tires and it keeps the rubber from drying out. Is that a wives' tale. Some times I believe silly things like that.

rubbing brake fluid shines the tires to no end..makes them soft..long term effect unknow..the one guy I knew that did this on his 65 Dodge Polara could not keep tires on it long enough for long term testing..that was one very pretty and fast car...black on black..every Friday at 2PM on the dot he pulled that car into the bay..cleaned, polished and tuned for the weekend street action...
