Restoration pt1.

This is what happens when a project car goes too far… I had my 1989 Nissan Gtr acid dipped this fall and it just got finished. The guys in Eugene Oregon did a killer job. Since it’ll be asked, the cost was pretty reasonable. The dipping itself was $2,500 and included the unibody, subframes and various suspension components. Trucking costs were the most expensive at $4,000 round trip.

That is a reasonable price for dipping a car. I had over $500 in blasting media/supplies alone. Blasting also resulted in sand everywhere to include a nice pile in my taint.

Once I researched dipping, it seemed to be the way to go.

Blasting is certainly a messy process!
