hey, first time looking at this project. looks good man!!! il have to stop by your shop some time.

i know a place that will powdercoat your frame for pretty cheap. that have a shitload of colors too. they are in canal fulton. and they are fast. weve took frames there and had them back the next day.

you going to put a sonoma hood on this? The blazer looks so much better with that hood. How much lift does this thing get?

i cant guarantee the will get it done the next day, but we have had that happen before. they wont come and pick it up for you, you have to get it there and come and pick it up. i would say if your doing a frame it would be pretty quick, just cause they would need to get it done to have room. here is there address and number

Rack Coating
5760 Erie Avenue North
Canal Fulton, OH - United States
(330) 854-2869

give them a call and see what they can do.

re: Project -Beat 2 Death- 2ooo sonoma bagged stock floor bodydropped on 24s

make sure you prep the frame pretty good before you drop it off. make sure there isnt any surface rust. my boss allways said they were the cheapest campared to anyone else. the last thing we had over there was a twinturbo buick rivieria and they had the frame done the next day for us. hopefully they can work something out for you guys!

re: Project -Beat 2 Death- 2ooo sonoma bagged stock floor bodydropped on 24s

had a few people come over wednesday to help out in the shop.

for the most part all we did was sit around and bs. what we all do best. lol

the fuel cell mounts got finished up.

we got the first edc lowered more to clear the stock hood and hooked it up to a tank and tested it to 250 psi and its working great.

took less than a minute to fill a 3 gallon tank from 0 to 250psi!

and we started making the mounts for the 2 air tanks.

re: Project -Beat 2 Death- 2ooo sonoma bagged stock floor bodydropped on 24s

if i seem a little too excited about the stock hood with the edc is because i love the look of a bodydropped s with a stock hood! i have been anti cowl hoods forever!

and let me tell you, its alot more work than it looks to get the edc to clear the damn hood!
