It will cover them however you still have to fine tune the
repairs with a skim of filler once you get it back.

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.

State inspection? Correction
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?

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.
