Default One side down - one to go

Little job but big satisfaction. Front bumper mounts on the 65. A lot grinding...a lot of sanding. Down to mostly bare metalwith someoriginal black in places. Three coats of Rustoleum Car Primer and four coats of Rustoleum 7777 Satin Black. Even cleaned up the original bolt and painted the head and nut (not the threads) on that. You can see I had some rust issues which left pitting but I was able to get all the rust out. And of course the fierce poodle cautiously approaching the evil rusted parts.
