If you don't need to have the body sitting at a particular angle you could do like I did and make use of the the plans on Gerard's web site. This is a way to have the car upside down or on its side.

I made mine with wheels so I could move it around. There are some photos of mine in my Webshots.

You make a good point Nelson, these cars are light enough that many different things will do including a mattress or some old tires to put it on its side. BTW not to hijack the thread but I hadn't seen those pics before - I didn't realize how big a job that restoration was - amazing! and all the more so for how beautiful it is now.
Thread not hijacked... But, Nelson "sir" get some sun on those legs....( Teasing).
Seriously though Nelson, is there a significants to your stripes? Historical or whimsical? I like them and most excellent job on the car. Top notch.
We now retun you Back to the thread:
JP what would you guestimate the weight of the body shell?

Yeah. Not mine, btw, I an just a link hoarder. What I like is you can raise it and put the car on saw horses to remove the end supports for spot work in this areas, then reattach, raise, remove saw horses and lower to rotation. Pretty cool. I was planning the dual engine mount set-up but this wooden one looks more versatile.

I used 2 cheap HF engine stands and mounted one to a 2x6 bolted to the rear and one bolted to a steel plate attached to the radiator uprights. I used a piece of conduit to hold the bases together, but a piece of 1x2 will work just as well. I also mounted HF rubber tires on the engine stands so it would be mobile and delivered it to my painter that way.
