there used to be a place in Jackson, ms that did acid dip. they had a deal worked out with a sub contractor for Nissan. They closed the metal strip place, so we do not have that option anymore. It cost me a little over 2k to have the body and frame done.

more primer, more blocking.

 

[fordguy]

Everything is blocked to 180, more primer Monday and star blocking with 400. Happy with how it is slicking out. Where y’all slackers at?
