I just bought a 240z that is a major fixer upper. But it is one of my favs so working to restore it over the next year. I'm in the process of stripping everything out so I can properly inspect for rust. So far, just two areas need it, but I imagine after removing the paint I will likely find more.

My question is, what is the best way to remove paint and rust from the body of a car? Is media blasting recommended? If so, do you know a good machine I could use at home? I just need to create a clean room around the car right? Walnut shells is what I was researching.

Advice on vehicle resto for paint and rust removal appreciated.

strip the chassis bare and send it somewhere close to get sandblasted, it will start rusting very minute they are done tho so speed is of the essence

My third resto, but first one I'll be keeping. If you don't want to help, they have gay sites that allow you to jerk eachother off with roleplay.

I know of two places, but they charge more than what the car would even sell for brand new. Plus, this is something I want to do. My buddy is going to primer it for me as soon as I'm done.
