RE: [Chevelle-List] body off

[Trinidad Zepeda]

I don't have a garage but I did it myself in the back yard!  I used 2 cherry pickers and some cinder blocks and bricks along with some treated garden lumber from Home Depot.  After taking the whole front end (fenders and all) and all the stuff from the inside out, I just hooked one on the front and the other on the back of the body.  I then took it up a little bit at a time putting bricks till I could fit a cinder block under the lumber!! I must stress safety first.  Be very careful, working alone can be kinda risky.  If I had help, we could have done it a little faster and safer!   Trinidad Zepeda 69ChevelleCoupe 69Chevelle4Dr 69Nova4Dr San Antonio, Texas -----Original Message----- From: Richard Milkiewicz [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, September 09, 2002 10:45 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Chevelle-List] body off I have decided to pull the body off my '66 and have it acid dipped and e-coated. I had my dash done and it's absolutely beautiful. My problem is I have no one to help me pull it off. My ceiling is low and is dry walled. So no chain fall or "A" frame. Has anyone done this without help? How did you do it? Any special problems I should be aware of? Once it's off I'll mount it to a dolly and have the frame blasted. Any help will be appreciated.
