I have a bunch of stuff going on but I'll make it a point to get as much work done to the car as possible. I have to get some pieces together as I go, I'm a little disorganized right now, however I did get to start getting things checked over, laid out, and fitted today, like the dash pad.

Spent a few hours at the shop today gathering more parts and prepping for powdercoat. I'm getting tired of trying to clean these tiny parts so I figured I would try my vibratory polisher. I only had lizzard bedding for media as I use this for other stuff and that didn't work, after over an hour I didn't see much difference. I ran to Harbor Freight and bought some heavier media, I'll try it tomorrow.

No kidding. Airbags were probably a good bet.

Here is what I stuck in the little vibratory this morning, I'll leave it for a few hours and see what happens.

try NUT shells ---pecan/walnut something like that if you can find it---they are hard enough to clean the rust/crud off yet soft enough without damaging the metal--- plus they are cheap--- try a landscape place see if they have some
