General Discussion / Sandblaster needed
« on: September 23, 2012 3:12 pm »
So i got all this "old car stuff" right?  Well, some of the stuff I have i want to keep for my own use and decoration.  Some stuff I want to sell.  So, the problem is this - i like clean parts.  Easier to transport, use for mock ups, prep for paint, panel fitment etc.  but I don't have a house yet, and if I did I would do most of it myself.

So, with the rusty stuff I have is there a guy/local business that would handle small stuff like car parts?  Is there someone that the club has used in the past?

I have valve covers, dashes, various brackets, some sheet metal, engine parts and stuff like that. 

I know that there are a few big businesses in this area but they deal with commercial sized stuff and so on.

I would like to find a guy like "amish ray" who i used out in PA i could drop stuff off at and he would have his 12 barefoot children help blast it and prime it for a decent price and turn around time.

rebuilder.  He thinks it is stuck - but i think the auto trans needs to be taken off and then seen if it will spin over.  We took the carb off to make it easier to lift without damaging it.  Also, it doesn't have the side covers.  If it had shop space i would get that trans off and then see.
it is heavy though.

hhmm...doesn't look to hard to make.

just saying.

lucky, i have seen it in person.  I remember it and saw it at latimore as well.  Never got to drive it though as Clark sold it shortly after i saw it.  Didn't know exactly where it went, but it is good to see it come up here. 

serious - you are right.

those price ranges are about correct.  Clark certainly did not give that thing away by any means.  He made his money on it.  I would think that 13-18 would be about right.

that exhaust is going to sound awesome!
