I just did this with my 68 Lemans! Tip make the 4×6's longer than the width of the tires then you can put the body on stands and roll the frame straight out the back. Without having to play musical jacks! Haha! Then lower the body if needed

That's one lucky kid to have a dad that know how to work on cars and show him the way.

The funny part is neither of my boys are that interested in cars. They help, but only when requested. My nephew James (shows up in a lot of the videos) really likes to help, good with the tools and fast learner. Unfortunantly he is a busy guy and difficult to find a weekend day when he is free

Thanks, it worked well, but heed my advice and remove the gas tank and exhaust first, it will make it easier.

Thanks! Keep watching, more should be coming in Nov. The plan is to get the frame back under the body this month so I can get back to working on what started this project, the LS motor.

Next Time Try Jack Stands and Two Floor Jack's same Method with the wood but with Jack Stands you can look the from Straight out instead of side ways. Double up on your wood to increase Height.

Man, I wish I had room for this in my garage. I mean, I would if it wasn't for the dozen plastic Christmas trees and creepy figurines im not allowed to throw out for some reason. I've got some body and frame work to do, but I think I'll just grab some blocks and see how much of a "lift" I can fit in
