G Body El Camino Restomod Frame Off Part3: Removing the Body

Using two Harbor Freight 440lb cranes, I lift the El Camino body off of the frame and mount it to a body cart. For reference, this is done in a garage with an 8' ceiling height.

That’s freaking brilliant! I think I’m still just gonna use wooden plank and a floor Jack to knock out my body bushings, but that ceiling mounted hoist and homemade body cradle combo is pretty sweet

[@terrylinellc5550]

Very brilliant...

Man i just rolled my dead grandpas old 78' el camino out the barn its been sitting in for 30 years, suprisingly its not rusted bad but the frames bent, I have a frame for it but after watching you guys get to the frame it might take some time 😂

[@toon_on_24s]

I'm watching and learning

Thanks for the video have to take my body off the frame new body bushings rear frame work

[@CarsandJoshee]

No problem. Good luck with it!

[@thomascollins3200]

Awesome guys. I would have marked the floor exactly where the "dollies" were before moving the frame out from under the body. You may have but I didn't see any as you moved it. Thats a sharp looking Elco!

[@CarsandJoshee]

That’s a great idea, wish I would have thought of it!

[@JoshVerbarg]

Worked about as shitty as I expected it to. 😆

[@CarsandJoshee]

I realized, after all the editing, that the video made it look easy, but there was more cutting and trimming of the cart than viewers are led to believe 😬
