Body Jig


On XKlovers, in the library section,  there is body jig diagram that looks very well designed.  It was constructed of a bunch of 2-1/2" x 2-1/2" x 3/16" TS fittings that were adjustable over a set of TS2x2x3/16" runners ,cross rails, and uprights.  I started with that design and to make it even more adjustable, I used the same type of adjustable fittings to support the 8" casters which will allow them to slide on the long rails.  Then (I don't have the TS2x2x3/16" stock yet) I intend to make the uprights also able to slide vertically so it will fit the Jag but should also be adaptable easily to about any car body.  I will explain more of this when I get the 2x2 stock.

My welding is getting a bit better.  Still looks bad but is holding well.
