Hi Joe
Here is the short version.The car was put on 4 large jack stands every part that bolts to the frame was removed even the gas lines.Gas tank was not removed.A solvant was used to remove that "Rusty Jones" undercoating (that stuff was all over!!) and the paint from the frame.The frame and body was not separated.The frame was apoxy primed and painted.The body of the car under there is mint.Nothing need,just have to wipe off "Rusty Jones".
The parts that bolt to the frame.I mean everything,rearend,control arms,springs,shocks,a-arms,tie rods,etc. was sand blasted or prep for paint the parts that are not painted was clear coated including gas lines etc.
The only new parts that was used were new rearend bushing and front brake caliber bolts.
The original ID tags and the inspection marks were put back on.
I think you have an idea of the quality of work that was done.
Most people would have left the undercarriage alone,but since this was a true 300 mile car I felt the undercarriage should be just as nice as the rest of the car.
I still need to wipe off that "Rusty Jones" crap under the hood plus detail the engine bay.
Well thats the short version....
