I use to charge but now I give by body away for free!!! At this age, I'm getting the better part of the deal. ;)

Body filler?

by Pklarkin

Hi all,

I'm doing a little body work on my A and was wondering if anyone's got a recommended filler for a few small creases - nothing major. Any suggestions?

body mounting?

by Jim Mason

I just ran across this picture. I'd not seen it before. It appears to be just after the body drop. there also appears to be six guys ready to install bolts(?). two things that surprised me is it appears one guy is inside the body. And it appears to be a hood shelf laying on the conveyor.
What do you see?

Plans For a Body Dolly Over Frame?

by Leo

When I did my coupe I jacked up the body and put it on two pieces of heavy angle iron suspended over the frame by cement blocks. It worked well and allowed me to move the chassis in and out from under the body as work progressed. Now I'm thinking an improvement would be to have the same type of setup except this time there would be wheels on whatever is holding up the body so that too could be rolled...

160-C Body Tags (153-XXXX)

by Steve Plucker

I have asked this before, still looking...Are there any 160-C Slant Window (2 Window) Sedans out there that have a Body Tag of "153-XXXX"?

If so...I need a photo of the ORIGINAL Body Tag for a article I am doing on the "Evolution of the 2-Window (Blind Backs) Sedans".

This would be a Briggs Body.

Thanks.
