Quote: yeah it sucks the seller was totally honest, but alot of us have been there. looks like you're doing a great job!~ keep the pics coming! Thanks,Dave.. I'll try to keep the bashing to a minimum from now on and concentrate on completing the job. At least the car's not a high-dollar numbers car, gives me the freedom to do whatever I please with it, and not hurt it's value.

Be glad it is not another runner or gtx! due to cloning there are more than ever now! Satellite's and coronet 500's seem like a thing of the past anymore.

Mark I hope you don't mind me making a suggestion regarding the use of the fresh air respirator. Try to see if you can get some clear plastic you can put on so the blasting doesn't scratch the mask itself. I went through the same thing and it's a messy job and I am just getting ready to help my friend do his 69 RR with my blaster.

That's a good reminder, I ordered 25 peel 'n stick plastic covers for the lens to help keep it from getting damaged.Here's a pic of the unit I ordered I like your exhaust fan...I'm thinking along the same lines...getting one from Princess Auto, but making a bit of a duct somehow, and out the bottom of the shop door.But, yeah what a mess...wondering how I'm gonna clean it all out of the car with out tipping it upside down!....Does this mean I need a rotisserie for Christmas???

I hope that's the extent of the rust, but if the roof and trunk rail look like that, I'd be checking the lower rear quarters and the seam under the door very carefully. I don't want to make more work for you, but that car would look great Black!!!

I'd love to do it triple black, but I don't believe my body/paint skills would do it justice...but I'm having my suspicions that it was just a quickie paint job waiting for a chump like me to fall for it!If I can save this paint job, it might look good for some fun for a few years, until I can or want to do it all over again!

Sorry I missed your question...The fresh air kit was 379.US plus shipping. Although the helmet/hood is not super hi-quality,It works great at way less than 1/2 the cost of nearest competitor. Motor pumps with lots of power, and air is cool.Google turbine products for their site. They are on ebay, too with tons of positive feedback.
