Just my 2 cents: Blasting the frame is a good idea and saves much back and skin. However if I had it to do over I would not have the sheetmetal blasted. While all the old paint and visible rust was removed, there were places you could not see where "old man rust" was hiding. When I replaced corners I discovered areas that a blaster could never reach leaving plenty of rust. If I ever do it again I will, for certain, have it acid dipped. I've heard of problems of dippers not rinsing the acid off good enough, but I still believe for me that is the best route to take.
