Re: Cab Rotisserie Thoughts.

The local powdercoater next door has a Chevelle body that has been powder-primered beforeany body/rust repair.

At first I thought this was ridiculous, but after a long talk with him, realize this is the way to go.

The initial blasting removes all the rot back to workable material ....

The primer-coating seals every nook and cranny, and leaves a tuff surface that filler will adhere too with easy.

You grind back the areas that need fab/welding work, then when done, repowder the areas, and reheat.

He will give me a great deal on blasting the entire body of the Burban, but I am hesitant because:

1) That would mean a full build

2) There wouldn't be much left of the body



Sorry to get off track, but the mention of powdercoating got my attention.



As far as cab rotisserie, I too would make my attachment points frt to back and along the underside. With the use of 'stand-offs' and long fasteners to give you some room to work, and to allow the blasting to get almost all the area.
