it looks nice and clean. :2thumbs:can they spray it were it is,or is that something you are doing?

Mopar1979

I will probably spray some Eastwood Afterblast chemical on it and then i will prime it.

What product was used for the blasting?  That looks like a nice smooth finish.

I believe he told me he used a crushed glass. I will check for sure and let you know. I guess it will be fun getting all of the media out of nooks and crevices... :o

She definitely bared it all :D I of coarse have more rain coming and still cannot pick it up to bring home :brickwall:. I feel like I live in Oregon or something (no offense). We even had snow two days ago and keep in mind I live in north Alabama and it's almost April. Anyway I ordered some more stuff from Eastwood like a block sanding kit and some body tools! :icon_smile_cool:

Sorry for delays... I have been down from having spinal surgery on my neck this past year. I was losing feeling in my arm and right hand and of coarse had a lot of neck pain. With a titanium plate and screws installed I am feeling better but not 100%. I hope to get her to the body shop for panel replacement soon. I'm still deciding on what motor to use. I have the original block or believed to be. It is a 1968 date coded 383 hp block. Been street raced and bored .60 over so I don't know yet if it's salvageable. Need to send it to machine shop to check it out. I will try keep you guys updated more often. Thanks for the responses!
