    it is doable . but first things first. he will need to remove a few things that will be in the way. headlights and etc. cant shoot between hood side and fender so hood has to come off to make room. frames not going to happen unless buzz bombed.
    media will need to be acrylic . not going to get into soda-blasting discussion period.
    but the problem is going to find someone to do it. myself i would pass . not the kind of thing i do. will someone willing to do it be able to ??? good question. best advice is be careful and check on it every other day. if no work happening return with a trailer.

    Yeah, I'm telling him that he's going to destroy the old fender/body welting, and even if not painting it is a bad idea. He needs to loosen the bolts to allow paint into the space, then new welting. You bring up a good point - the guy that will do it might not be the guy you want, and the guy that knows how to do it may not want the risk. What do you mean by "buzz bombed"?

    Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
