No professional powder coater would have done that. I blast every frame I do to white metal , outgas, prime and topcoat. And by the time they are done assembling that gloss black will look like semi gloss black.

A better way to attach that bracing to the underframe (Super Labor Intensive) is to do it Aircraft-Style, that is, precisely drilled .250" holes and Military-Grade Blind fasteners (MS90354S08-xx). Smeared with plenty of AC-730 Sealant.

Poor workmanship. Powder coated over rust. Didn't sand off the rust on frame or media blast the frame. Frame was not checked for square and level. Many rough spots on frame that didn't get ground down and smoothed out. No inner support for frame. Very bad Tac welds on body sheet metal. Its a clumpy mess. One of the cross members/bracing was pieced together. Should of been one solid piece.

Had this guy that had $$$ and thought he was fast with his 67 tri power 427 vette.. My buddy had a 66 tri power GTO that had visited Royal pontiac and had a 421 loaded under the hood with all the treatments. The Vet guy challenged him.. and Lost big time. That was the 500 dollar first run. He said he would be back in a couple of hours. We sat at A&W drinking Rootbeer floats. He showed up having super tuned his Vette at the Speed shop. Well he was only a car legenth behind that run. He wanted another chance. That round cost him 1k in money. So he showed up at like 3am for one more shot.. Well He lost by a fender... He was stoked but coughed up the 2k and drove off.. We ended up pushing my buddys GTO into a farm turn in for a tractor and getting a tow home.. See Larry blew up his Munci in 3rd gear and actually still coasted in beating the vette....... Well At least we had some $$$ and the money go buy one of them M22 rock crushers for the GTO

Power coating Sucks! I had rims done for a Vega a few years back. I sand blasted them clean. Sent them to my local powercoater. Mounted tires on them and used the car. It was not long before I got stone chips and started rusting under the powercoat. They bubbled rust under the powercoat. Best to use a good wet primer and top coat. I personally will never do it again. Powercoat is baked at 400 F but can chip fast too.
