Question Re: 1971 c-10 teardown & frame up resto

Okay well yesterday I went out and bought a $200 20 gal blaster. Came with everything I need except for the compressor and I have that. Got at tractor supply but now I need media. It looked like all they had was black diamond sand so I'm wondering the specific media I need to use for blasting my panels.

Thanks guys

Edit: Will high build primer work where there was surface rust? rather than bondo?

Also, came across a good parts truck with a working 350 small block with three on the column, after clean up and paint what could this fetch with the tranny too?

Finally, she runs fine but when I shift her into drive of reverse she stalls out on me. I bought a carb rebuild kit today and tried fiddling with the idle a little already. Do you think the carb rebuild kit will do the trick after sitting for 2 years. I've probably let her idle for a total of an hour since I revived her. Any other suggestions are appreciated.
