Re: Working on a 71 swb
Solid project and former builds! I love the picture of your dad. My grandfather was in Germany probably about the same time.

Re: Working on a 71 swb
Set the cab and front clip on in one piece
Used 2 pieces of 5" steel pipe slipped onto my bobcat forks with a pallet on top.
Set it up into position and raised the chassis up to it. Went pretty smooth for a 1 man show
