The only way around, is through
i had a frame dipped almost 10 years ago at a place in the romulus area, i think it was called carponents. I wonder what the prices are these days.
as far as dipping bodies, I have heard bad thigns about it. First they dip the shells in acid to clean it all and remove the rust, but when they wash the acid off before they do the ecoat process they dont get it all out of the seams and the hard to reach places. So after a year of beign painted or so you start to see cracking in certain areas like the bottoms of the doors at that seam/lip area, trunk area, etc.
how much was it to do a bare shell?
edit: i went to the website and I think thats the same company I did my frame at.
this is the place

To attempt the destruction of our passions is the height of folly. What a noble aim is that of the zealot who tortures himself like a madman in order to desire nothing, love nothing, feel nothing, and who, if he succeeded, would end up a complete monster!

There is a place on 18 and Mound that does E-coat. I am not sure their process and how big, or if they even service the public. But I was dropping off interior parts for e-coat. If anyone is interested I ll try and find their info.
These parts werent for me, they were for a small out of business company I worked for. So I have no back ground with them or prices.
And yes 1 mil = .001 lol
I work with finishes also.

the place in romulus doesnt do the e coat there they ship it out if you have time ill post the pictures of the "quality" work they did
To me, it's a good idea to always carry two sacks of something when you walk around. That way, if anybody says, "Hey, can you give me a hand?" You can say, "Sorry, got these sacks."
agreed. i worked in a shop as a machinist. we made molds for pace maker leads and other medical equipment. if a print ever said mil (think i only saw it a handful of times) it did NOT mean mm. if it did then i would have slapped the shit out of the designer who made the print.
'86 notch--> fired up and ready to go
mil is units in 1/1000ths
1millimeter is the metric equivalent of 1 mm
I've dropped stuff for people at that place in Romulus (It's 5 mins from my house). They do the cleaning there but I don't think they do the E-coating there.
I like pie.
