I have finally started restoration on my gas pump and I would like to get the parts sand blasted to remove the paint and rust but I have no idea where to look to find someone to do that. Anyone have any suggestions on where to look for a local place to does sand blasting?

I got an email back from one place and they said that it usually costs 100 to 150 to blast a gas pump. Does that sound like a good price or should I look for another company?

Always, always, always get a few quotes.
And ask for customer references. The price may be right, but if your panels come back all twisted  it's  not a good deal

Thats a very good point especially since if it was that hard to find the lower half of the faceplates on my pump then finding the frame pieces would most likely be impossible to locate.
