the Blasters a grand job as the big fella said were only really cleaning off the crap and a quick fly over where needs priming saves ALOT of sanding, it leaves it ready to be cleaned & primed. a decent compressor is more important I'm using a 150L that shifts 15cfm ideally 200L is what ya want,
took the guts of 5days to fully blast a mk3 capri and its messy as fook, and never use normal sand,
Oh and How they hanging I'm Rob/Bob

Fantastic job

Do you find that it's a real pain trying to get the shot blasting media out of the box sections ?

I did a similar thing to my Sierra and I must of spun it a hundred times on the spit and blasted it with an air line chasing it all out

camera shots can be deceiving to the eye. I was going to fish for a few tips if you had pulled it as I've got to do mine as the bm is a few inches wider than me combi. Keep up the good work and keep pics rolling mate

Il keep an eye out for the next post. I've read the whole thing from start till now it should be like a brand new car when you've finished the extent you have gone to, well impressed!
It's getting there slowly slowly I'm hoping to have it ready for ford fair this year. I put a few more pics up earlier this evening
