I'm back. Still on mechanical stuff, but at some point in time I'll have the bed, doors and fenders off to fix and paint. When I do this, I'd like to do a quick and dirty (I hate that phrase) clean-up and paint job on the frame, driving gear, axles, you get the picture. It will be driveable and was planning on driving her to a local spray and wash to degrease her first. What do I need to do to prepare the surfaces and what paint should I use? I don't mind using a primer first then a top coat. I have no spray painting facility or area, so I'll need to brush it on while she sits in my garage.

Thanks!!
