Thanks Guy's! Well I'm trying to get ready to blast the bottom of my Challenger so I burned and scraped all of the under coating off today.That was to much like work! :stomp: I was glad to see that it did it's job there was very little rot in the wheel houses and rear floor pan.

Nice!  Please keep those update pics coming!  What color was your car originally?  Are you going back stock or are you going to take some liberties?

maybe you should take some plastic down and wrap the hydraulic rams before they blast.


Great to see it moving along, i think this car would look good in Burnt Orange for some reason. :2thumbs:

Well I got the car back from the blaster last night and it looked better than I thought it would.I knew I was going to replace the rear half of the rear rails and the trunk floor.On the driver side rear rail there was one spot by the spring mount that is bad I think I will patch it not replace it.
