Back from the soda blasters and boy is it clean. way cleaner then i thought the soda could have made it. i know it is not shiny, but that was not what i wanted. i wanted it to be cleaned and to have the live rust cleared off. i think it was accomplished. now i will come back with some of the Eastwood chassis kit they have.

also i like the soda so much i am going to buy a blaster from eastwood, $299 and it will do sand and stuff too. should make cleaning the smaller parts even easier.

well tell me what you guys think?? pretty good job i say. and it was only $350 bucks....well worth it in my opinion.

does anyone know what those rubber bushing pieces are at the ends of the torsion bars, especially the smaller bars....mine are rotted pretty bad. some of the rubber on this car must have been replaced at one time cause it is too good looking for being 50+ years old. anywhere besides Kanter to get a front rebuild kit for this thing too?? what are you guys finding that fits from other cars as far as bushing etc...

thanks,

Hank
