I have the body off the frame and will be getting on the rotisserie today. From what I can tell there has never been any body work done on it. Should I media blast it and then epoxy prime it before I begin repairs or repair all of the obvious spots first? other than rockers and floors there isn't a lot of rust. When I media blast it where is the best place to take it in the DFW area?

thanks,

Rob

i took mine down to bare metal with a combination of wire wheel on the large area flat surfaces(especially areas with bondo) and sandblasted the harder to get to areas. then epoxy primer to stop surface rust. that's great if you have options for having the media blasting done for you. the one guy i was put in touch with would never answer my calls so i wound up having to do it myself. i didn't try that hard to get in touch with him however since i was told it would be six months and $1000. i would think if you don't have it media blasted and primered, you could miss alot of rust.
