I love the less is more theme. This is a very clean 69. What media blaster did you use?

Default Darkside

Car was stripped via walnut shell blasting, but ultimately ended up replacing a lot of the sheet metal with NOS or original sheet metal; doors, fenders, hood and trunk lid are all original GM. Dispite using the best sheet metal available, considerable time was expended getting the best possible fit.....this was the most challenging project to date and pretty sure it will be the last.
