    Looking to buy a second stepdeck to load from my main customer. Have found a 03 Fontaine that is a very good price except it will need reconditioning. Have no idea what the cost is on something like this. Also has anyone had it done at Fontaine with their RENEW? Thanks

    Sandblasting and painting costs around $2,500 for a real good job and paint. They actually used a crane where I had mine done and flipped it upside down

    $2500? For Sandblasting and Painting? I just spent aBout $5300 on Sandblasting $3300 on apitong. About $1200 in steel to fix stake pockets rub rail and rebuild the bumper. $800 in screws for the floor. Roughly $500 replacing all the wiring and lights

    ....that sounds familiar. Is that the place behind Berubes? I haven't been going to nh much for a while, but the name sounds very familiar. I'd like to get the back end of my truck done before the light surface rust starts working :/

    YUP! Not behind but the street before. Down the bottom of the hill on right. The lady who owns IOWA80 use to hang out at Berubes a lot before the old man passed away.
