By the way, how much did it cost you to have your 73 dipped and sealed?
Was it also e-coated, or was it sprayed after being dipped?
Not 100% sure sorry. I know it was done properly, my resto team wouldn't have taken it any other way.
I believe it was just dipped, sealed and given some special coating to stop rust until metal work begins.
Cost was $1,800 NZD I think, so around $1,350 USD but you just read it as $1,800. It's awesome and the 71 will get the same treatment. Some like it, some don't but if it's done buy professionals who know what they're doing and sealed properly it's what we think is the best route to go. Quick, fast, and every mm of rust is gone, not one pin sized rust spot left. Took one week, went Monday, came back the following Monday ready to roll. Then I put the project on hold LOL.
Some got scared off when it was first used some 15 years ago as they didn't seal the cars properly back then, the process has been fine tuned now and is one of the best ways to do it. Though, there are still some bad shops out there who don't seal it or leave the cars in the bath for too long etc. If you do it, make sure you do your home work on the company doing the dipping.
