[urq] Dipping vs Blasting

Hi All,

After I remove all of the (few) remaining parts from my Urq shell, I was
thinking of having the shell dipped or media blasted to bring the entire
thing down to bare metal. There is enough rust on it that I don't want to
assume all is well under the undercoating and paint, and I do not really
want to hand strip it. I want the body to be returned to better than new
condition, so I believe the best way to ensure this is to have the shell
stripped. Any BTDT? I have my own opinions on the pluses and minuses of each
procedure, and would like to hear what the rest of the Urq world thinks.

Also, does anyone know of any *VERY* reputable and competant bodyshops in
the VT, MA, NH, Upstate NY area? As close to Bennington (southern) VT as
possible. Thanks!

   - Marc
