1940 Ford chassis is on the left. 1983 GM chassis is
under van body.
Dragged Ford one under body after rolling GM one out
the back.
It is amazing how well the old frame fits under the much
later aluminum body.
Body was suspended from roof I-beams front and rear.
Ratcheting hoist used on each end.
Body is not terribly heavy, especially after finding
and removing all fasteners holding it to frame.
A couple of willing helpers to help lift the heavy stuff
