Rolling over :-)

Post by roblockett »

Morning all, I'm geting to that point of my restoration where i've stripped all the paint off the chassis and started to weld all the structure points up but now i've got to takle cleaning all underneath the car and get rid of all the old underseal. I'm rolling the car over to do this so i've looked on the web and seen other people rolled the car over, I've braced the car across the centre of the b posts with a couple of tubes welded to the inside. Any one got any experience in doing this and any tips.

Thanks all

Rob

Are you using a proper rollover frame?

Well managed to do it, got it over with two of us as it's not that heavy and plenty of tyres and pillows. The underneath is all cleaned off and didn't find to many horrors there :-) The cross member ends are a bit rough but the main bit is sound. I want to get it Soda blasted and there's a couple of companies around here (Birmingham area) does any one have any experience with any companies and soda blasting?
