    Nice work! The comment your friend made reminds me of some customers I've had. It's the small stuff you can't see that is usually the foundation of quality. But they don't see it like that. Everything should be fast and done yesterday. Haha Anyhow, nice work. I know sandblasting is one of my hated parts of rust repair. My first job at the body shop I worked at was sand blasting. All year, yeehaw. All that rust repair will pay off in the end. Just think about the money you're saving doing the rust repairs yourself. It might pay for that hoist.

    I cut away the corner, and am planning my next two patch pieces. I also cut off the exhaust tip. Goodie, one more thing to put back together.
