Default removing body off C1
Hi all,

I know this topic has come up a few times, but can someone provide the details on the best way to go about removing the body off of the chassis for a C1 Corvette? Best places to support it when lifting, etc?

Thanks!


Jim

You can even do it with camper jacks - just one of many solutions, depending on what facilities you have available:

I had B&M Auto in Knoxville recently take mine off the frame, they did a nice job cleaning 50 years of junk off the frame/underbody...
