    Does anyone know of a shop in the Dallas or Waco, TX area that can hot dip/vat a complete car body to remove the rust and paint? I have asked several people but got no reliable information.

    If anyone knows of a place even outside these areas please let me know.

    Try Metal Re-hab in Arlington. Don't have aphone number handy but you can probably Google it. If not let me know and I will get it.

    Thanks to all of you for responding. I checked into Metal Rehab and it looks like that will be the choice.

    In 1996 or so, I used metal rehab to strip a 1976 Snap-On top box and then had it powder coated at another shop. Metal rehab did a good job.

    Finding the rust holes is a good thing, since my friend is doing a ground up restoration and does not want to deal with rust again down the road. Thanks for the input.

  10. Using Metal Rehab in Arlington Tx to dip,strip and prime a 65 Falcon 2 door hardtop with trunk,hood, 2 doors,fenders and front rock guard. They have a great shop, do real good work and Brad is a real nice foreman who is a young car buff as well. Also prime with DP epoxy primer and do a great job. Couple Thousand bucks is a value !
