I've been having tons (actually 150lbs or 3 bags of sand worth) of fun with my new sandblaster. If anyone here needs any parts sandblasted get with me and I'll quote as low a price as possible for my fellow Mav enthusiasts (you handle shipping).

Just got done this afternoon with the front fender retainers (little rod-looking things that keep the fender from swaying), shock tower braces, hood latch assembly and the power steering pump. I'm still amazed after going down to the bare metal, throwing on a coat of primer and painting them gloss black how well they look! I'm not sure whether I'm having more fun sandblasting or painting!

Anyway, just thought I'd offer this as a service to my fellow Mav enthusiasts. Email me if interested.

Happy Maverick'ing,
Tracy
