Body removal from chassis

adam3059 said
Hey dodge71demon, the reason for the body removal of the body is I need to strengthen my chassis in Australia to put a gen 3 into it. I have a chassis already done a engineered but its a convertible body (some people ruined good coupes) so for $500 i can get the chassis and swap my coupe body into it. Otherwise to get my chassis strengthened and engineered will be $3-4k.. so I'm just seeing if anyone has tackled removing all the spot welds an transfering. Cheers

If you don't value the hours of work it will take to remove the the "frame" from the body then it is cost effective. If you value your time at $20/hour then you may come ahead, if you value your time at $50/hour then you will have wasted lots of money. Buying something for cheap then putting many more hours changing things over by using your labor to do that is usually not cost effective...
