Chemical dipping will eat away anything not metal for the most part. Body
filler, rust, rubber, etc.

I would also lean towards panel repairs
first. You know how when you weld new sheetmetal in,
there's markings from the welding - I'm guessing that Ecoating
just covers the markings like body filler would (If it doesn't, I'm guessing
the only other answer is putting body filler on it to make it smooth, but
then, my question is that wouldnt the body filler come off in the chemical
stripping?)? Am I right (or wrong) on this?
(This is my 2nd (and probally my
last) question on the subject, so please don't start another
conflict. (not directed at you))

Chad,
I believe you have to make the repairs
yourself. I have been told the best way do this would be to have the
process done once. $$1800.00$$ Then make all the panel repairs as required
by the lack thereof.<G> Finish by having the process repeated a
second time. A 3,600 dollar total. If there was a facility closer to me I
would actually consider this option. However I think I'm leaning towards
making the panel repairs 1st and then have it dipped and E-coated. I only
hope I find any possible hidden cancer. Soon as I get my hands on a
rotisserie I can get started. I haven't had any luck locating one of those
locally either.

I heard that when you your body, sometimes
the body is so rusted, that the "part" of the panel is complety rusted
through and the chemical stripping leaves a hole in it, as it is
supposed to remove rust. well, in this company, what happens when
it is rusted that badly? do they repair the panel and then
ecoat it?

State inspection? Correction
Pa in starting
to make some strict changes in the way you register your cars. Street
Rods, Classics, Antiques are all allowed by law to be driven one day
per week and that is it.. This has been for a while but I have been
informed they are starting to tighten all of this up. Registering a
car with a blower out of the hood is not a problem. Getting the car
inspected is though. You allowed a maximum of 4 inches and it can not
interfere with the drivers vision. I know I turned one guy away
because of this, as much as I hated too. But having a license in my
back pocket I have to protect my job and shop. The issue with all the
new lights is more of the way people are sticking the clear lens and
colored bulbs in, mainly around here would be the kids with their
Honda's etc. The last word we got direct from the State at our shop
was things are changing and they will be enforced. And that was from
the guy doing the audit on our record book. At our shop we don't see
many street machines and the ones we do see are street legal.

If the others states are like PA , They
have alot of obscure DOT law regarding vechial state
inspection.
example. in Pa for a none street rod or
colectoe Vechial plate. you can not change exhaust systems,
chang tire to mor the one size +/- orginial or change the dia
of the Steering wheel. the were having a feild day in the hight
of the off road 4X4 days with tires,bumper hight,headlamp location
adjustment.
In Pa they have been on a fact finding
mission for the last two years to finalize, a unaform inforement
policy. I can't wait to see what these guy/gals come up
with.
Last Feb 01 the dot had a meeting in
Harrisberg open to the community. They showed pictures of pro street
cars with antique tages, classic taged cars with blowers
stuck out of the hood and street rods, that had no winshild wipers
of fenders !! Not to mention a truck load of photos of safety
violation from lights to a T bucket with a suicide front ends ,no
brakes and a moon fuel tank.

What does a steering wheel have to do
with a state inspection anyway? This just sounds like another ploy
by some states to make the hobby go away. I was stationed in
Texas(love the state) back in the early '60's and I had a '49
Olds. If they had required inspections back then they wouldn't
have let me put air in the tires, let alone put it on the road to
drive.

I wanna know why they can dictate this when they sell them
legally in stores. I didn't have any trouble getting my SS
passed in Quitman, Texas with my Grant GT wheel.
