Once the media blasting starts, you might be surprised
at what "opens up"willy nilly There's a guy out in your area
that is re-doing his '68 D200 and I think he's sunk about
$1200+ into paint & materials and that is basically cost
with no markup..... just sayin..... Stuff adds up really
fast when you want a decent [or better...] body/paint job.
Save your coin... You'll need it when you add your daughter
to your insurance policy.he he
