I purchased the 7hp/80gal upright compressor from Lowe's about three months ago. I looked several before making the decision to purchase the Husky. It will produce 15.1cfm @ 90 psi, ideal for blasting. I can sand blast until I'm fatigued and that thing will keep up. The best $750.00 I have spent on a tool in quite some time. It will run about anything you would want and then some while doing your truck project. I bought a 5hp/30gal upright that produced 12cfm @ 75 psi originally to do my blasting. It has been relegated to doing the projects that require less cfm and more portability. If I had to do it all over again, I would have spent the money for the 7hp/80gal upright right off the bat, but I thought I might get off a bit cheaper with the smaller unit. Don't make that mistake. Buy the biggest unit you can afford that will provide the cfm/psi needed to do the job properly and efficiently.
