I'm looking at getting the body off the frame of my '69 442 convertible in
order to blast and paint or coat the frame. I don't have a heck of a lot of
space in my garage and I am not currently planning on doing the
blasting/coating myself. I was thinking(hoping?) I could save some money by
doing the disassembly of the car myself and then having it trailered/towed
to a shop to do the work.
Has anyone taken this approach? Does anyone have some feedback on how far I
should go with disassembly?
I don't have an huge budget in the short term, but I'm willing to spend some
money to do it right. Since body work is likely the next step, does it make
sense to put the body back on in its current shape, or just have someone
take care of that as well at the same time?
I'd be curious to hear some thoughts and theories here.
