Using the engine hoist to lift the body high enough to slide the sawhorses underneath.


Lifting the rear up and positioning the sawhorses.


We used the sill seams as our centerlines for the body table. Naturally, they weren't straight - Ford made the floor pan about an inch narrower in the front than in the back. We had to tack some spacers in to square the front of the body in the table.


Sean marks another piece of 2x2 for the table.


The trunk is heavy enough to tilt the snoutless Mustang shell right off the rear sawhorse, so a hook through the trunk latch is holding it level. Sean just found there is inadequate headroom to walk underneath the crane.

Shims level the body side to side and front to back. Lots of care was needed here!
