Hi
I have an old LTD I like and prefer not to get rid of. However I have rust underneath of the car and 1 part of the frame is rotten. Is it possible to get the Frame and underneath sandblasted, also how much would I be looking around to spend on the sandblasting? then get the frame reinforced. here is a basic picture of the underneath
thanks

You can sandblast but it is getting quite common to plastic media blast cars now. I think the sandblasting can be quite harsh on the vehicle whereas the plastic media is a little softer and easier to control how far to blast. Some may disagree but it could be worth checking it out. I'm afraid I have no idea on costs though.
