Frame is Blasted!

What a title to a post, huh?  Picked the frame up today and then dropped it right off at the body shop.  It looks really good - very silvery with a rough texture to it - after being blasted with Black Diamond 30/60 grit abrasive (Joe picked this up for me from David at Abrasives and Equipment of Atlanta).  Joe said it took him about an hour and a half to blast the frame.

So it's at the Marietta Dodge Collision Center, which is run by my buddy John "Clancy" Nicholson, getting coated inside the rails, primed, and then painted with Gillespie 24052 Marine Corps Forest Green Semi-gloss.  The pics below were taken with my phone, so they aren't that great, but you can at least see the color of the raw blasted metal.
