Restoration Update (Body back on!)
Saturday, with help from a few friends we successfully placed the body back on the rolling chassis. It took about an hour and a half, and will all the eyes and hands there were no problems at all. YES!
Also, before the process began, a few last minute components had to be assembled on to the engine.
Its a car again :)

Re: Restoration Update (3X2-427)
Thanks very much for the feedback, guys.
Patrick, yeah, I guess its a little to neat. :)
68, we did have plenty of help; its actually very nice to have that many eyes watching for problems, hangups, whatever. Last night the restorer didn't find any issues due to the body placement = good job. Yes?

Re: Restoration Update (Bob Demmel)
Great Job :D
I always look forward to the updates that people have with their cars especially yours since you always have good pics.
Question to all after looking at the pics, does having the exhaust on the car for the drop make it easier or harder?
