Re: body lift

1500lb is strong enough to lift a boddy
you can even lift the body with 2 or 4 people
its not so heavy

good luck Sander,

Re: body lift

I recently pulled the body from my 1970 with an engine hoist. No problem at all. However, you can't roll the chassis out from under the body b/c the hoist is in the way. I picked up a cheap set of dollies and rolled the chassis out from the side of the body.
