The Demon is finally getting used

I went to the garage this morning and he started on the body fixture. Any A-body will be able to be put on here and straightened or reassembled. This body even though it is perfect it was off by 1/4 inch front to back. but set down perfect . So these bodies flex even when empty. There will be other supports such as front and rear bumper which will have jacks built in to straighten twisted cars. This frame fixture base was bought at Mario Andretti's race shop. They used it to straighten his sprint cars years ago.

The car will be clamped on to this fixture to install the cage. I'll try and keep up with pictures as he goes on. There are other twisted race cars coming here to get straightened. One had a cage welded in while sitting on the tires and jack stands That car is twisted pretty good. So much that when you pump the slicks up hard the right front comes of the ground. That car was done a Mike Curcio's race shop.
