Default Lateral-g Project S-Curve Question

We have voted to keep the body on frame, The car came new with under coating and the bottom is not very rusty, but we need to clean it up im thinking of just driving it to the sand blasters and having the bottom blasted before we take it apart?? Not that much money 125.00 per hour, I can lift the car and get the bottom in primer here at the shop. Or do you think we just clean what we have here or any other ideas as too getting the bottom clean and under coat free? Im thinking the 125.00 per hour is not bad.

Not a bad idea, and you may discover rust you didn't know was there. Another media might be better though, sand can warp and damage things.
