Has any one heard of dustless blasting? Or should I just sand it down by hand? It has some rust and bondo and I know it is usually worst than it looks. This is a southern California car and has sat for 10 to 15 years, floor pans and trunk are original and solid. My plans are to get it running and enjoy it as I slowly fix her up. I don,t want to take it all apart and look at for the next three years as I put it back together. Thanks in advance for any help or suggestion Doug
the last 5 gtos i stripped i used aluminum oxide i would highly reccommend wont get rid of undercoating but i use walnut shells for that good luck.
