Looks really good. Sorry to see (in another thread) that your selling the project.

I know this is "off topic", but in an earlier post you said you use home depot "play sand" for media blasting?? I wanted to do this but was scared off due to all the warnings about using regular sand for sand blasting due to the risk of siliconosis!?! Is that stuff blown out of proportion or are you using some serious PPE equipment? Just curious as I have some parts that need blasting and don't want to spend $25 for a bag of the glass bead stuff.....

Yes, the car did sell. Really wanted to finish this one, but I bought a much cleaner Rx2 to play with and i needed the room.

Use a very good respirator when using play sand. If you have smaller parts, use them in a blast cabinet.
