      ROFL!!!

      That would be when one of those jerry-rigged harness clips slides up the body frame rail at the speed of light.

        Mark had us all coordinated with specific responsibilities. From the time we lifted the body then set it down on the frame it was less than 10 minutes, probably closer to 5 minutes. Was quick, easy and not a scratch in the lacquer paint.
