Re: Shotblasting / chemical stripping
The sand-blasting was done at e-blast in Kintore through a friend who does business with them already. It was a first time for them as their usual business involves a more aggressive approach. The results are pretty good, it certainly revealed enough holes.
There's absolutely no chance that I'll be on the road this year. It might not even be this decade!
The car was bought as a evening/weekend project to keep me away from the pub (and the wife). The motivation is going on runs and polishing it every Sunday.
Drop me an email if you want to have a gander.

Re: Shotblasting / chemical stripping
Glad to see that there is still somebody out there. It's all gone very quiet at the moment. I everyboby beavering away in their garages getting the cars ready for the sunshine or something.
Suppose that means I had better start doing something instead of hiding the Midget under it's cover.
