78- Is that a golden jube?

No, close though. ;)  It's a '58 801 Diesel.

Just rebuilt and painted my entire suspension and frame with POR-15, Tough as stainless and if you get the product on you, it has to wear off. Used this on 1984 Chevy C-10 pickup,.

Ah ok. I have a 51 8N. It just looked familiar b/c the jube is so similar.

It really depends on what part you are painting. I have found good old Krylon "satin" black to be an ideal finish for a frame if you don't have the body off. For my suspension, I use various colors and brands, but rely on Eastwood products to give a great look and durable finish.

^ Another vote for Krylon Satin black. Nice on the inner fenders as well. Covers great and dries fast.
