Twirlers are ok.....but if you want the Mac Daddy? Check out the Whirly Jig. http://www.whirlyjig.com/
thats the one I have, and I have ZERO complaints with it. We've used it several times so far.I bought mine used from a buddy of mine who bought it new. So far it's had 3 1970 challengers, one 1970 cuda, a 67 Coronet, a 66 satellite and now a 1970 chevy malibu on it. Hopefully a 1969 Daytona is next. and then a 72 Olds cutlass vert after that

Don't be penny wise and Dollar foolish. The Whirlyjig is much bettrer quality than any other unit out there and very user friendy. The Father/Son that make it are good guys with great customer service. I bought mine at the Mopar Nats they had a special on them. Well worth the money.

Yes,
First I steam pressure washed the whole car, got all the under coating and grease off.
Then blasted the bottem and insides with coal slage. Took about 2 hours of actual blasting to do that. That night I welded in the torque boxes and frame connectors.
Sun I did the outside body panels with plastic media. It took about 200# of media and about 2 more hours of blasting. It doesn't take near as much media and alot less mess when your not blasting grease and under coating, which sure as heck won't help paint adhesion. Ready for some pictures??
Here's another car I did with the pressure washer before any blasting takes place. It don't take much blasting when there this clean which stresses the metal much less.
This is the compressor I use, No shop compressor will do it. Hope this helps.
