Does anyone have a diagram showing the location of the body to chassis bolts, also a sequence of what to remove to lift the body.

This might be betterer.

What's up with it if you don't mind me asking?

 

[colin247]

Thanks for the video, I want to lift the body off to use the chassis, axles, brakes and air suspension on a classic car.

Can't you find someone a bit lighter? The chassis on these is enormously heavy, unless you're building something like Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, it's not going to make for a particularly sporting vehicle.

Interesting... Any pictures of the car your using please?
I always fancied sticking a mk1 golf on an 88" chassis but think either the LR or golf bods would frown..

Ah you want to make an unreliable classic

Shouldn't be too bad, I'm using a Jaguar engine and box so 2wd, it is a cheap way to get air suspension and Brembo brakes.

It has to hold a 1949 Buick so needs a bit of strength.

 

[colin247]

As is and what I am aiming for.

I see. You'll need some rigidity to keep the ends apart on that body.
Keep us posted as to how it comes along.

Bloody hell. Niiiice

Now that's coooooool! Beats an RRS hands down

I quite like the idea of a Derelict.

They do some pretty amazing "upgrades" too - LS in a original Ford Bronco, for example..

Go for it my friend

That's the body ready to be lifted from the chassis.

Another 3.6 V8 diesel bites the dust.
