I say dip it and then galvanize it, then undercoat it. then tar it, then linex it, then put a little polyurethane on it....... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/devil.gif

Just make every body who's coming to the meet work off the sushi "bill" by sanding down the car? I call the hood!

 

[Spyder]

But seriously, is there any way to hot dip galvanize a car besides at the factory?

Thats alot of rust to rid of. Alot of the guys have great suggestions...but it seems to be expensive get rid of the rust. Makes me feel greatful I held out and kept on looking when I was shopping for a GVR4. Good Luck man!

The car is almost ready to be taken to Media Blast. I found a guy to do it for me for about 700.00 dollars.
Anyway I promised I would post pics of all the parts I have for the car already so here goes.



Working on the trunk









2 of the 4 JDM vented hood I have gotten over the years. Hertz the gray one is for you if ya want it I need at least 200.00 out of it I believe I paid 270.00 plus shipping for it. It has some dents and dings but is fixable.













Complete AMG grill I got last year from an Aussie Member

Man you have been humpin it. Good work. That sucks to see rust "appear" as you remove panels. You have NOTHING compared to the prelude I rebuilt when I was at ISU. Good work. Hang in there and it will pay off.

 

[V8EATER]

I really wish I lived closer.

 

[jcgalntvr4-244]

yeah me to then you could be doing all the work /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Jeremy - the car pretty much needs to be stripped to the bone for media-blast. NO wiring harness, dash, etc. That blast will kill stuff quick...make sure its a naked carcass before it goes out to him.

Also, does this place have a rotissiere?

Take pics, BTW!
