The other day when I was at HF, I saw a powder coating kit for $70. I forgot how much the powder cost, but I was wondering if it was worth it to powder coat the frame of my '70 GMC myself, or find someone else to do it. I haven't done it before, but I learn quickly. haha

You have to have an oven big enough to bake the powder coat once it is applied. The Harbor Freight kit works good on small parts from what I hear with many people using old kitchen ovens to bake the parts. Don't use your regular house oven as your significant other may throw you out!
