I will carry the bare frame with mounted inner body panels on a trayler to the sandblasting shop. Wath´s the weight of the parts together, or how many worker are necessary to put it on the trailer.

Easiest way to pick it up is with two long lengths of wood 2x6 would work . . put them underneath the car front and rear under the engine bay and near the rear outriggers . Four in shape adults can then pick the frame and body up reasonably easily . Hopefully the body panels dont have 3/8" of bondo on them that will make it really heavy .
