Time to update my build. Cold temp's chased me out of the garage for a few weeks. But I'm back at it again.

I built the wheeled body frame. The cars body is now on an adjustable wheeled frame. This way I can move it around. Removed the front end and rear end. Now the frame sits on 2 modified furniture dollies. This way I can move anything anywhere to work on what I need.


While I was at it, I built a cart for my mig welder.

Cost me 2 2x4's. I had everything else lying around.

I've been knocking the rust off of the frame with a wire wheel on my grinder. Getting the frame ready to take to the sandblaster. Hope to get it there by next week.

As I was getting ready today to weld on some temporary cross braces. I checked the frame for squareness. I leveled the frame front to back and side to side. It's perfect. But....Here's what I don't understand. The c-channel Is different top to bottom. The frame is level front to back, side to side, and the sides are level too. But when I went to measure for the cross bracing, I noticed the top and bottom lips are different widths. The bottom lip is 3/16" smaller than the top. Except at the front horns up to where the body mounts. Is this normal? In the pic's below I moved the tube steel to show the difference.
