Here's a quickie update.  I have the body on a tall dolly and needed to raise it some to put a floor pan in. I tried to jack it up but it decided to start sliding so a little engineering in order. 
 
I built(with a little help) a truss to hold a body sling for safe lifting and when ready lowering onto the frame. You can tell I love the car I sleep in a tent next to it every weekend so I can work late and not bother Grams with noise.  My head seems to be healed but some women swear I can't hear them. Duh....really???? Wink
  
 
 
 
When I am done maybe I will make a picnic table for Grams from the wood.Smile




Corvettes and women are the same...You want to make love to them but they keep breaking down.

When I get the floor pan in and tie up some wiring it will be ready to mount back on the frame. I think the next slow spot will be the engine builder.
