Mark - there's a company in Philly that does soda blasting. I think they gave me an estimate of $1000, which included pick up / delivery of the car from my house, if the car was already taken apart / ready for blasting.

it was and walnut shell blend, looked like some fine silica sand. I delivered and picked up and it was $1400.00 I dropped it off last thurs. but with rain on friday I asked them to wait until Monday to start. It was ready for pickup tuesday. The company is AFCO in Gardena.

cutting and trimming began last night in prep. for (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) in the stiffining kit and rear quarters/ tail section. Then the pass. sill/rockers work and floor. It will be at least a week before its time to mount the gt rockers and valance to line up the flares (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif)

Looked like more than soda since rust was removed.

Just my opinion but I don't think the rockers and valences have anything to do with the flare positioning. The flares are structural to the body and become part of the body of the car and should be fitted to the wheel opening. The rockers and valences are trim pieces and should be fitted to the body of the car. Again, jmo. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Wow , The tub looks so much better all blasted.
Pretty straight forward from here.

Andy are the pinch weld seem that pass along the rear shocks on the underside straight ?
I have seen with the smallest of rear end damage they can get a curve in that section.
Not knowing how bad the back was from rust or accident damage. Just curious.

It was an accident and it wasnt. the PO before Joe of course, cut the rear and corner pannels off and not in a pretty way. it all looks strait but will be taking measurements to verify its in spec. Then the door and chassis bracing goes on and on the rotiss.

The back edge of the front flairs line up with the back edge of the stock fender and the front edge of the rears line up with the front edge of the flairs.

The fronts need to project forward so the wider tire/wheel combo don"t catch the front corner of the flair when turning.


It is also the safest to have the rockers at the same time to adjust as needed.




Armando's site is a great reference, here is the seam ;
