My questions are
1. I have a lincoln sp175t wire feed welder. Is this good enough? I also have a large air compressor w/60 gal. tank
2. Can you please give me a list of useful tools i will need to do a total restoration?
3. After i sandblast, what (name primer) do i prime with?
4. The fenders had water inside them and when i knocked the rust out, small pin holes came into the fenders. The paint on outside of fenders is still in good shape with the holes showing through. How do i fix that? Replace or can i use bondo over small pin holes?
5. What do i cut the metal with? Thin grinder wheel or i think i read about a metal sher tool? You may already have named in the tools needed.
6. Now for your advice. I have all the original trim, small nic naks, knobs, emblems, and chrome trim, etc, but it doesn't shine like new. If i spend all this time restoring the car, i would want everything to shine and not use all the old faded emblems, knobs, rust spotted wheels, dull chrome if i can't shine it etc? I know all the original stuff is what most people want. What do i do with the old original stuff or do i send it off to get it redone also? Is it cheaper to redip chrome or just buy new chrome pieces like the bumpers etc?
7. Can you give me the names of the parts stores to buy from?
