It will cost you more to have it sandblasted in individual pieces, but you'll have cleaner parts that way.. Try and find someone that will charge by the hour vs. per piece. Around here in Michigan, going rate is $100.00/hr. You can expect to pay about $200.00 if you had the tractor assembled. But there will be nooks and crannys that won't get a good cleaning, and then you'll have the problem of getting all the sand out of the tractor. Which means a disassembly of the engine after you just put it all back together. If you plan on doing it as a whole, don't have the radiator on, the blaster will make minced meat out of it. Very high pressure, blew a hole through a thin spot on my Super C exhaust manifold. Good luck on your project..... Milan
