Just have them do it & bond the frame to the body. If you are doing the build, this is the way to start. you get the car all mounted & safe, on a set of dolly's. No need to look back, Money well spent! This is the way I started & wouldn't think of doing it otherwise!
The other issue is always resale. Powdercoated frame that is in good condition always looks better than a painted frame. May cause an educated buyer to ask were else you skimped. Just thoughts, Good luck!!! Let me know if you have any questions about the ERA build! Hyde

Anybody got any compelling reasons, or just your opinions?, as to whether the cash is well spent, or am I just being a cheap-skate?
Has anybody got any long-term experience with a painted chassis on an ERA car?
