Re: My 1958 GMC 100 Stepside Budget Build

Thanks everyone.

Nut Case, I am using a Harbor Freight 110# pressurized media blaster and the 60 gallon air compressor that my wife bought me for Christmas last year that is rated at 11.5 CFM at 90 PSI. It is a little small but keeps up ok except for running constantly when blasting. For blasting media I am using plain old play sand from the hardware store. I know it is dangerous but so is just about every other media that is worth using and all of the chemicals that I use in the garage. You just have to make sure and use a decent respirator when using stuff that you shouldn't breathe and you will be just fine.





I got in a little more sand blasting tonight on the inside of the cab. I was afraid that I would find some problems hiding in the corners and crevices that had some pretty heavy rust on them but it is coming out really good.
