The Royal Coupling!!!!! - Body mounts Chassis - only on Pay Per View. IT'S A CAR AGAIN.....almost.

One year to the month we dropped the frame, we have now successfully mated the body back to the frame, thereby achieving a major milestone.  Stephen, my wife's godson, who also was my sole help dropping the frame last year, and Todd, a friend from church and  fellow Corvette owner, and I got the frame on the chassis this afternoon.  We used the engine hoist and thought like ancient Egyptians and managed to get it back together. We didn't measure for shims, align the frame/body gauge holes, or install the body mounts yet.  That's for next week. We accomplished quite enough...besides, the "ingenuity" we used to get the body off the very high rolling table and onto the frame required some fancy work arounds that wore us out and it was definitely Miller time...actually, Pilsner Urquell time.  The lifting techniques we used are not for the weak of stomach, so pix will not be published to protect the ignorant. 





The motley crew, minus one.
