Posted: Mon Oct 01, 2018 8:23 pmMec, this is indeed totally epic!! Awesome getting all that done in 2 days. How long did it take to build the DeLorean Lifting System (TM)?
Dan - how did you lift your body up when you did yours on your drive? I just remember you replacing the chassis with bricks but not actually how you got the body off...

Posted: Mon Oct 01, 2018 8:56 pmAwesome progress, you're in good hands with the talented Alex!
So what's the plan after the dipping and welding?
Galvanising so that it can get into all the boxed off areas?

I see the same rust issues in my future. Where are you sending the frame for stripping?

I took it off with bricks too. Jacked it up, put a brick in, jacked again, another brick in etc. Then when high enough I moved the bricks out to clear the wheels and put wooden beams across. Lots of messing around compared to Mec's lifting solution!
