Craig is doing an awesome job setting up the 35 chev hot rod body. Just been roughing it out and fine tuning it back into shape getting gaps right, as it came to us as a floppy steel body. Framing her up so we can start building the body and fixing Rust including a roof chop. With this frame we can lift the body on and off and she will always land back in the same spot as we build floor frames and floor pan.
