Here's the bare frame on the trailer ready to go to Arizona Powdercoating. Powdercoating is an electrostatically applied powder (hence the name) that is then baked to create a durable and attractive finish. Before the color was applied I did a few modifications to the frame: relocate battery, radiator, cooler and electrical box; make windshield frame and emergency brake assembly for future street legalization, add mounts for a rear wing, and a few other little things. |

These are the suspension pieces. I had these ceramic coated at JET-HOT in Tempe, AZ. Their proprietary coating has a great near-chrome look and doesn't run the risk of hydrogen-embrittlement nor have the cost of chrome plating. | |
This is the frame back in the garage. The color is a great candy-purple. Now all I have to do is put the whole thing back together again! | |
This is the JET-HOT coated rear trailing arm. | |
More to come! | |
