He charges $150 per hour.. the guy doing it only knows of one other guy in chch that does it and aparently he charges about $300 an hour.. my ute he thinks all up will take about 5 hours all going well and thats going all the way back to metal so that gives you a fair indication of how much it will cost all up.

Went and checked out the sodablasting today and the panels look amazing! Should be getting it back this weekend all going well and then hopefully I might organise with wal going around to see him to get some chopping and weilding and get the primer on there? Will get photos up when I have them.

If anyone is starting a new project I definately recommend sodablasting! no warping to your panels and it brings them out amazing!

FJ20ET is a bloody heavy lump of cast iron...
How are you going to get it to go round corners?
