Mudbone,
Don't take too sharp a turn or you'll lose a taillight!

Congratulations! Nice shot!. What will they use to blast it?

Nice trailer and nice body frame. Is that yours?

They will use plastic media to start out with and then they go back on any rust areas with asand product. The trailer is mine but the roto is a friends. I should get it back this week.

I have my car back from the blasters. I have been too busy to post anything till now. I was able to get my doors in primer inside and out and a few front braces. I have been finishing up some welding and hope to get the body in primer soon. Later, Mudbone

Body In Primer
I finally got the body in primer. I was also able to get the outer floorpan in final paint. (Slow but Sure)

Wow Mudbone


That's looking great. I wish I was that far along.


I seen your post about fender patch. I have a good Special fender(3 holes) but it is too good to cut up.

Good luck with your search. You may want to try Wheatbelt to see if Ken has something he is willing to cut up.
