1972 Canadian H-Code 340 Dart Swinger Special Resto - Finally started!
Sorry that my thread and pictures are messed up Jim, I took the approach of not wanting to spin this thing back and forth so I hung a canvas tarp off the car so it would catch most of the glass so I could easily gather it up and reuse it. Then I worked from the bottom up and blasted everything I could see at that end of the car then moved the tarp down and did that end, spun the car around and flipped it and did the same process from the opposite angle, I did wire brush it by hand to knock the bulk off before I started. I took some breaks to give my compressor a chance to cool off and me as well. I decided to remove my torque boxes and rebuild them to remove the dents and clean up the poor welding the factory did bonus being I could blast and paint the inside of them. Later I decided to blast the engine compartment and fender aprons, since I was this deep might as well keep digging LOL! I think I managed to blast the whole car using 3 or 4 bags of glass, not a fun job but the only way to clean it up right.
