Preparing to Move the Chassis

Yesterday evening I picked up a trailer from a colleague to move my chassis to the body shop for a frame alignment. An important next step in the project. Fortunately I found a detailed drawing on the Internet with the chassis dimensions that I will pass on to the technician. I am keeping my fingers crossed the frame is just "slightly" tweaked and straightening will not be a major undertaking time wise and $$$$ wise....

In the last few weeks I have started to daydream about getting back to the restoration which is a good sign. I am at a critical point in the project (Kijjiji ads galore show cars for sale in similar states-owners having given up) and I want to make sure I press on and get through the hurdle of the having stopped the project due to the twisted frame..months have passed...hard to believe....

There are some critical tasks I need to complete before winter arrives-painting the underbody and engine bay and finishing off some bodywork...

I also need to repair or replace my shop vac-the motor is hatched.....
