Re: "Rice Rocket'

heres soem pics of the progress

dad said I should've waited till summer (65* for 2 day) I should've waited till summer. Oh well.

I was just going to wire wheel it but dad said it'll wear out the drill ?

So he talked me into blasting it. What kind of sand should I buy? Is playsand ok? (cheapo)

I bedlined my tank (no pics too tired) it looks good. Dad thinks I should do brush on bedliner instead of paint. My trailing arm bolts were pretty rough. Got 1 Side off. Other side and everything else that has to come off is soaking in kerosene,wd40,and motor oil in a squirt can.

I took my shocks off (getting new ones). What should I expect to pay from autopart store? 20 bucks apiece or so.

What're all the ports in my gas tank for?!?!?

bigest one for the filler. one by sending unit is for the fuel pump line to hoook too, and I guess another one for a vent maybe? whata bout the other 2?

What to coat frame in?

1 blast then rattle can

2 blast then bedliner

3 your guys opinion/other

If I blast then bedliner, should I self etch primer under beliner or no
