I’m on the other side of doing this to my ‘75. Having the frame out and cleaning it up was extremely satisfying! I made that exact dolly, it worked so great, especially when I needed to move the body around. Great video. Liked and subscribed!
@@chadd2715 i wire brushed the entire frame and then I used the 3 step system from por 15. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Oe3eUkWilVw.htmlsi=KlJBOq8je7kpmPfO
I lifted mine with a chain fall supported by a fixed 4x4 gantry with a crew of drunks (I was still drinking at that point in my life, 18 yrs sober now. Memories. Fuzzy ones lol). I remember flexing the front clip like you did after you got the body separated. Kinda surprising isn't it? It's a journey. Lucky for you the internet is here, I bought so many magazines and VHS tapes, subscriptions to Corvette Fever (I think that was the name of one of them) magazines etc. Just think out your steps before you take them, ask questions and take suggestions with caution; there's lot of BAD FREE ADVICE (and trolls). You can do it, anyone who has some basic skills and a functioning brain can do it. Good luck and have fun.
Congratulations on your sobriety. You're right, if it wasn't for RU-vid, I would be doing something else. I've had a couple of trolls, but I just don't respond to them. I care little about the quality of my videos or negative opinions. I do want constructive feedback, because this is my first restoration. I only post videos to give back a little. I get a lot from watching multiple examples of experiences on a subject. So I post for people like me who want to see more.
Do you have a source for plans for the body dolly that you built? I am restoring a 72 convertible and have a couple, but neither are as nice as that one.
