For anyone interested, the shop that is doing the work is Blasting Specialties and Powder Coating.
http://www.blastingspecialtiesandpow...g.com/home.htm
They will be powder-coating frame, all suspension parts, and axle housing for 575. Seem like a fair place to work with and I will give a full report on the quality of their work in my build thread for anyone interested in having work done in So-Cal.
I am trying to stick with-in a budget, but the general concesnsus(sp?) seems to be that while its down and apart, it would be worth the expense. I have until the first week of September to complete the truck before school (everything except motor and transmission) so maybe I'll build it complete without a driveline and when I come back for Christmas break build up the motor and trans and drop them in.
Tony, I have everything in crates, seperated by what goes were. one for chrome, one for blasting and powder coating, another for just blasting, etc; but good tip anyways.
Thanks for the help,
Kurt
