Today's gentle fun:
Remove the old air-tank. I'll have to find my little borescope camera and check out the inside of it; maybe it's still okay enough to reuse, but the little tiny bit I can see doesn't inspire much confidence.
I only really need it for the dryer's purge tank anyway, and a replacement tank of that sort of size (or smaller, which is more appropriate) isn't terribly expensive.
Attack everything with the wire wheel, brushes, sandpaper, etc. Pause to admire the wheel scotch hooks...
Before spending some theraputic time with the paintbrush.
Plenty more to do, yet, but if I can get enough of this painted where it's easier to get at while the locker's out, the rest of it can be done later.
One thing's for sure, I need to give this truck a damn good wash. Full-on MOT wash level of cleaning required, because there is considerable amount of compacted oil & dirt skunge packed on stuff like the transfer case.
