So is that on the top of the rail?
i guess you could find with a mirror if the body was still on
How far from the back is that Dan?
I might have to check tonight?
Did it matter if the chassis was a box type or the 2x C section type?
Steve
one of my buddies is a skipper so he had his ass tattooed.Dan, Not Stamped
Might be a tattoo,
foot prints starting at my hip and getting progressively smaller as they disappear up my A$$
Only kidding, not into anyone shoving little sharp things into me around my Butt
Steve
That paticular one is my Bel-Air but I have parted out at least 5 other 61's and they have all been on the right side. 62's on the left and I don't mean that politically

Yes Steve on top of the rail. I have had both 2-piece and one piece frames both it the same place. It is in about the center of the frame rail and you will need a good wire brush to clean off the dirt. I couldn't even see mine with the frame off until I wire brushed the top of the frame rail then it popped up.So is that on the top of the rail?

Thanks Dan,
Dont know about using a wire brush to get it to pop up
sounds painful
Sorry thinking of something else

Car came into NZ in mid 80s and was original 348,PG,PS,AC,PB car and i still dont think it has been off the chassis

Yup that is why we belong to such a great site.Geeeezzzz Gav,
That is what Phil is here for, too keep us yungins on the correct path
Got a rear end to blast when your ready Lol (Butch, Dan, Ray, Phil that is the rear end of a car not my rear that im talking about)
Steve
You could come around Sunday. I hoping to get chassis done on Saturday weather permitting.
Gav
Dave,
Is CHP short for chap or is it California Highway Patrol? or something else?
Do you have stricter rules in regards to getting a vehicle on the road than other states?
Just wondering thats all
Steve
May do that Gav,
Make sure your sand blasting tent is still there after these winds
There is that much extra wind around some one must have opened another Indian restaurant close bye
Did you realize that if you type Gav in here the auto correct thingy wants to make it Gay
what is with thatBob might know something that you dont
Never mind, at work too early again and brain not functioning well yet
See you at the weekend
Steve
I believe most were LA.
Gav, CHP is California Highway Patrol. I am not sure if we have stricter laws regarding titles, it seems like every state is different. My Belair came from Colorado and had been idel for many years, so I had to jump through a few hoops to get it registered.
Yeah this bloody Nor west winds we are having is a real pain in Dan's buddies backside (going by those props), maybe he's the cause.May do that Gav,

Well that's really great to know about auto correct with the word Gav - NOT
Now just fingers crossed that the rain stays away.
Gav
Finished blasting the chassis tonight and must admit it took a bit of doing but it has come up really clean and in good condition for painting. Will be hooking in to the diff and suspension parts in the weekend including parts for Steve.

Chassis looks great
Steve
I think (hope) you made a typo error there Steve!!! 
I can't believe I'm just reading this over 4 hours after your post and NO ONE else here said anything about it. What happened to Phil-Check?

What are you saying! I really hope you are referring to a "jolly good time"
Hmmmm, even that doesn't sound right.But to answer your, yes i will be home after 6pm.

Made a good start on the underside of the body today. And i tell you, having it on a rotisserie makes the job so much easier.
However, note to one self. DON'T push out of the garage while still in upright position! Acts as a full on sale. Had a gust of wind that nearly ended in disaster
. It tried taking off and had to get Wendy to come and release the bolts while i held on to it as it had gone of the edge of the concrete.

Thanks Grub,
Yeah my first temp at a rotisserie and works great. I found some plans on line and more or less copied those. Have a look at following thread as i have posted more pics there and plans i used. Steel was beefed up as it was all freeeee from work. http://www.348-409.com/forum/threads/rotisserie.28702/
