I've concluded that I need to replace significant portions of the lower wheelhouse, inner long, and the suspension console. I've spent the day researching and reading the classic threads and like many of the rack-like assemblies my predecessors have built. Let's hear some easy but still effective ways to get this thing off the ground and straight enough for structural repairs.
I really like the one for "Bringing out your Dead" but can't quite figure out the points it's mounted. After bracing the doors, can I use the front jack points, a long support along the floors, the outer suspension console, and the trans mount area? I ready for some ideas. I'm trying to develop as many COAs (Courses of Action) as possible. Thanks. |

If you can find a way to fit a rotisserie in your garage - do it...it will make the restoration much more manageable.
I had space constraints too. After installing body braces, I cut lengths of 2 X 4 and screwed them together with drywall screws. One side at a time, I held the car up with boards & jackstands to make repairs. It wasn't fun or efficient...but it did work. |
