Thanks for the pictures...   Kyle Bennett Raleigh, NC ----- Original Message ----- From: jjabuck To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, January 15, 2003 6:46 AM Subject: RE: [Chevelle-List] blasting a body I just finished building one.  It was a piece of cake.  The steel was $178 all cut and ready to go.  The worst part is drilling all the holes.  If you want pictures let me know.  I did make a little adjustment, added 2 hyd cyl to raise and lower it on the uprights.   Jim Buckingham -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Mike Smith Sent: Tuesday, January 14, 2003 10:52 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Chevelle-List] blasting a body Would you send those plans to a South Carolinan?

It will cost about the same as media blasting. Maybe a little more. They don't use sand. Sandblasting is one of those universal words everyone uses to describe what they want done. They do sandblast the frame, I'll get mine done this spring. Acid dipping will get in every nook and cranny and remove EVERYTHING. Rust, grease, paint, sealer, etc. But you get back virgin looking steel. They bake it in an oven to melt and loosen everything then dip it and then it is run through a neutralizing bath. Just had mine done and  I couldn't be happier with it. The solid floors I thought I had...... well their not so solid. I have to replace two small sections in front. Right where the air conditioner was. I had a Mustang media blasted once and it turned out to be a nightmare. It will punch holes in weaker metal even if there are no holes there now.

I'm trying to decide if i want to rent a Rotissorie (sp?) and do it my self, of just let somebody else do it.   Thanks, Kyle Bennett Raleigh, NC
