I too am struggling with what to do with my 61 F-100 body. I have gotten two bids on having the body media blasted. They ranged from "about" 800 to a solid 960 for everything in/out and on the bottom. I am doing this resto for fun and just am having a dickens of a time springing for a grand to have it blasted...even though I know that is what the pros would do. I have a little kettle type blaster and am still toying with the idea of using a combination chemical/media. I have the body off the frame and everything (and I do mean everything) stripped out of it and the doors. The front clip is completely apart too.

Oh! By the way, on the 8N tractors I have done in the past, I used a lot of Easy-Off oven cleaner to remove paint. It is relatively cheap at the Dollar Store and does a pretty good job. I like the aircraft stripper too but it is more $$. Por-15 makes a stripper and I have a gallon but have not used much of it yet.
