Body on the frame!!!

Now let me say this: I AM AN IDIOT! I should have painted the entire car first but I thought that getting the body on the frame would be a BIG DEAL and was afraid of ruining the paint but the entire process of

a. putting the body dolly on the bottom
b. removing the rotisserie
c. lifting the body by hand
d. pushing the frame under the car and having the frame push the dolly out
e. putting the body down

45 minutes ... done

The lifting part and getting the frame under the car ... 15 seconds. The car should have been painted for 3 months already. This was the worst decision I've made on this project because now I have to tape the car really really really careful before painting.

Oh well ... we keep moving forward.
