Sand Blast Only by a sandblaster that knows what he is doing!!!!
I just had the trunk and hood of my 71 Stag Sandblasted. He warped both
panels, now I
have to fight with them to make good on it. I checked the price of a used
trunk lid.
It is 350.00 . Although I haven't haggled yet.
The rest of the car I will do by Grinder, DA sander and rust removing gel.
THnx
Pat
