Have the complete car taken apart now after doing all the fabrication. Welded a battery tray onto frame which sits under passenger seat between frame rail and drive shaft and also welded tabs to mount transmission cooler which sits in front of battery. Tried a new method of removing body and it worked great. As i get older I have to find easier ways of doing things. :-) I cut two six foot 2 x 6's lumber and slid one between body and frame just behind firewall and slid the second one between body and frame where above rear axle. Was able to do this by myself using floor jack to raise body off of frame a few inches and slide the lumber in. I had removed the rear tires and lowered rear of frame down onto the ground first so while lifting body we didn't have to lift it to any big height. My wife and I and another couple, each grabbed onto the ends of the 2 x 6's and in seconds and with no one having to stretch or have a hard time holding on to the body, we had the body off and slid straight back onto the roller I built to sit the body on while painting it. I always build these roller from 4 castors, two 2 x 12's lumber and a piece of 3/4" plywood. see photos. I position the 2 x 12's onto the plywood so the holes in the floor pan that bolts the body to frame can be used to bolt down the body to my roller with lag bolts. I will use the same method of lifting body back onto frame with little chance of scratching the new paint job it will have. photos show the body bolted to roller and the chassis all wire wheeled by my wife ready for paint. Also going to use a new method of painting frame. wanting gloss black on my frames I usually just buy some Acrylic Enamel and paint it after priming. To get a better gloss on the finish and make it easier my paint shop had some black self etching primer that does not have to be sanded before top coating so I am just going to prime the frame in this black primer then shoot clear urethane enamel on top of that to get the gloss. will be much more glossy, durable and less likely to chip than the acrylic enamel I usually use. will have black primer on frame, rear axle and all suspension components today which has to set 24 hours, the clear on tomorrow and fully assembled back to a rolling chassis on Sunday. love it when a plan comes together. I have all the body work and fitting of doors etc. done so I will be able to block out the surface of the body and paint it shortly.
