Are you in Laramie? If so, I feel for you (I hold a degree from Wyo-Tech) and hope you get out and into the industry soon.

Looking good. You need to get that thing on a blanket, and off the floor so you don't scuff it up.

Looks great, Buddy. Whats the going rate up there for a subframe and front end, if you dont mind my asking.

Actually, there is cardboard under it in those pics where it is touching the ground. You just can't see it. It's standing up in the corner of the garage now until I can pursue it further.

The whole shibang (sandblasting and coating) cost me $425. That was the subframe, (4) CA's, bumper braces, steering componants and spindles, motor mounts and tranny mount. Basically was $200 to spray the subframe, $100 to spray all the parts and $125 in sandblasting.

Where in IL are you located? I am going to be using someone in Carlock,IL or East Peoria,IL (hometown) depending upon price. PM me and I can give you name/numbers if interested.

Congrats. Powdercoating looks awesome!! Had mine done almost 5 years ago. Always looks great and shiny without having to buff. With the colored powdercoating I am thinking now . . .

**Mark Antrim** · 10-14-2005

looks great buddy, I'll have to come out again and see it together

For all the Illinois people here , I would suguest taking a look into a shop called LO-KO. They do all sorts of coatings , especially powdercoating and cermaic.

They did a couple motorcycle frames for me , along with a set of custom headers for a old racecar project , and came out top notch.
