Thanks for following along you guys it’s a good time documenting the car coming together. This is a little story I'm calling "My original plan was." I intended to bring the car home, install the rollbar, drill the emblem holes, weld the firewall and seat pans, and place the shell back on the rotisserie. Excellent plan, wasn't it? Only issue: Chris and Kelly weren't too fond of my one-person, four-post lift method that involved grabbing the roof and quarters with ratchet straps to attach it to the rotisserie. ![]() Also, as previously posted, Chris wanted another round of blocking with the car altogether. Once this was done it was a good time to lay out the bumblebee stripe with the SS fender emblems simultaneously. Not to mention (but I will), because I'm slow and the body shop is very busy it did take slightly over six months to get the car back into process the last time, I brought it home. So, to save time and possibly hours of body rework it was agreed earlier that the car would stay. I’d come in and assist in placing the shell back on my rotisserie when the time came, using their 2-post lift. That is exactly what happened next, the front clip was removed and the body shell went back onto the rotisserie. Went fairly smoothly in my opinion, just a few hours one morning. The good news is that the car is another step closer to paint. In hindsight doing it this way probably cost a little more but, with the time savings (?) and Chris and Kelly’s skills I’ve got no complaints! The End. A few days later I stopped back by and found they’d repaired the trunk floor (hanger holes created by the exhaust shop earlier, see link). I’m fairly sure Chris will take advantage of the rotisserie angles to block some more on the roof as well. https://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/...&postcount=288
