That looks good. It's good to have a color someone else "that you know of" has not done yet.

Re: 198Plus build by Alan's Classic

Yes, but that Chevelle makes me sick. Not because I don't like it, but because I almost bought a 66 that color with a 396 when I was 19. My friend talked me out of it saying it sounded like a throwout bearing was going out. At 19 that seemed like a big deal.Young and dumb! I saw one just like it at a car show last night and was reminded how much I liked that color

Cut off the chain hooks and welded the holes up along with the other holes Saturday.

Took the T/G to work and got to do some work to it. It's a PITA sanding all of the corners and letters.

Got some pitting in the corner and elsewhere but this is the worse place as far as pitting. A lot of pitting along the pinch welds.



Final (3rd) wipe on the O/S. The letters might need some work. I hope they prime out.

At least your getting stuff done on this build. It's kinda hard to have 2 build threads going on at the same time. Keep up the good work Allan.

Thanks Dennis, I'm getting stuff done, but tonight I need to beat on some metal but it's too late to start making noise. I'll find something to do. Going to get this sand blaster tommorrow give me your thoughts on this unit. If it's any good or not. Ronnie brought some parts over that had been sand blasted for a while and has some slight surface rust. The parts are the core support and H/L mount panel. I can sand most of it but not all. I think it would be best to hit it again with the blaster

Same one I have. Offer him $100 even. It's funny you ask about the sand blaster. I was using mine all day today getting in the nooks & crannies on the Lark. What a PITA the clean up is. I had to sweep up all the sand, and sift the dirt out of it before I put it back in the blaster. I did that all day. Then when I was done I had to clean the whole damn shop. There was sand everywhere. But it did a great job. Do you have a Sandblast Cabinet? If not that's a must too. The next piece of equipment I'll get is a solvent parts washer. I'm getting tired of using spray can brake clean.

That was going to be my offer. I don't have the room yet for a blast cabinet, but I have been looking for a deal I can't pass up. A parts washer would be nice too, but that is at the bottom of the list for now. I could have used it on my tear down. I use a bucket with mineral spirits and a squeeze bottle for now. Thanks for the input.

Ronnie you mentioned a roll pan when you were here saturday, what are you thinking now?

Re: 198Plus build by Alan's Classic

Alan that's a good blaster. I have a HF one. Mines a 40lb but doesn't have the water trap. The hoses on mine were crappy and need to be replaces. It's basicly the same unit as that one without the wheels. I paid $70 for mine. Make sure you use blasting sand. I used play sand and had to sift the hell out of it. Also Harbor Freight has black diamond for like $7 a 50lb bag. I use the fine grit. works good! I would also say try to find a real sprayer handle for it. You'll know what I'm talking about after you use it.

Re: 198Plus build by Alan's Classic

Thats a hood for sandblasting sitting on it. I use welding gloves also. But what's very important is to ware a respirator like when you paint. Sand is nasty stuff. I look like a space man when I'm using it. My wife called me on the phone while I was blasting. I had to take everything off just to answer it. She pissed me off. She could have come out to the shop to ask me the question. Not phone me 90 ft away.

Re: 198Plus build by Alan's Classic

That blaster looks just like the one I bought at HF for $99 I think it's only 40lb not 80lb. Did'nt say the gal size. Mine works good. Even came with a cool little hood that lasted about 2 hours Used it to blast my cab. Made such a mess I haven't used it since. I'm need to get a bigger compressor. Maybe for Christmas.

i got a $5 welding hood and took out the dark lens. and staped a t shirt to the back of it to keep the sand off of it.. I made it into a positive air hood so i dont need a filter. I have a snap on 150 lb unit. works great.. I have a queston though.. what about using glass bead instead of sand. shoudnt be as agreasive or heat as much and i can get it for less than sand
