Well, I've almost got my rotisserie done, and was looking for some info on the best way to start the body work.  I need to replace the quarters (or are they third's since it is a two door? :eek4:) and was wondering if would be better to do them on the ground, or mounted to the rotisserie.  I also plan on doing the outer wheel wells as well.  I plan on adding frame connectors, agian, same quesiton.  My goal is to get the body work done, then the suspension, then the drivetrain and interior.  Good greif this is slow going! :horse:

Well ... I'm sure it's been done in many ways ...

They are of unibody construction, so for doing my trunk, extensions, one quarter, and one patch I've distributed the weight over four jack stands (and the two front wheels).  So hopefully when the new metal is on, and the rear axle put back on the ground, the body's metal will be appropriately loaded and aligned.  But who knows ... check back in a year or so.    :dunno:
