Exclamation opinions on sandblasting and media blasting???

i posted a thread in the wrong place and got some good answers, but i forgot about this and figured it might help me a little more. anyway, i have a 67 fastback mustang that i finally (whew) got down to the bare body and frame. i found out that i can get it sandblasted for 300 bucks, but its not going to be a ship-shape job, just most of the main stuff. as this is a total restoration, i kinda want it to be perfect. i want to buy my own blaster, since i found a few i can get for a decent price (and so i can use it on me and my dads next project car) but i also heard that sandblasting may warp the panels, namely the quarters and fenders... this is a huge issue for me, since the car will be metallic black and it has to be absolutely flawless. (my dad will be furious if he's painting and sees some defect... this car is one of those things that he has to have perfect since he owned his own bodyshop) anyway, any advice or input on the kind of blasting and methods or where to get equipment for cheap would be appreciated. thanks
