Be nice.... just starting. took taillights off , running boards ... need to take drivers side glass out and front winshield. .. My plan is to lift the body off and replace the pans etc . I bought some casters to make a rolling frame to put the body on while I work on the frame.

Wasn't sure what you accomplished as you do not have a "before" picture in this thread :lol: . Glad to see that you are making some progress 8-) . Keep it up.
