I got the rear half pulled around the house and into the garage as well so I could make sure the rear brackets are built right.

I cut and welded up some brackets to attach to the front body bolt location. I painted them with some left over spray paint so they wouldn't rust.

With the frame out of the garage I could get the front half of the rotisserie into the garage and assemble it.

Lots of degreaser and pressure washing got most of the crud off the frame, it is rusty but its just surface rust and its very solid!

The El Camino sort of left the garage! Its funny, just the frame looks gigantic compared to the Fiero.

The front rotisserie half is in place and finally assembled with the ram and everything together. Its nice to know it all really works as it should.

Lots of degreaser and time with a pressure washer got the frame pretty clean. Its solid with only a bit of surface rust.

The El Camino left the garage! Well in a way at least. Just the frame is huge compared to my little Fiero!

Rear brackets are ready to go but I need another pair of hands to finish getting the body on these and pushing it further into the garage so I can close the door.

The rear half in place for measuring and figuring out the rear brackets.

All done and they carry the weight of the body without any problems! Had some "racing red" calliper paint laying around I'll never use so they are fancy and red now.

Lots of simple green, degreaser, time and a pressure washer really did a number on the frame. Looks really solid, just some surface rust.

Taking some time to clean and remove all the grossness from the parts before I tuck them away and get back to work on the frame and body.

Well it took about 2 hours from when I jacked the car up to this point. I think I'll put the wheels back on and roll the frame out and then blast it with a pressure washer.

Pulled the wheels and put the rotors on dollies to give me some more clearance. It was barely enough on the back.

I used two 4x4s in the front and then found (cut an old fence post) one that was long enough and got rid of the two pieces.

I took the last 6 body mounts out that are located under the doors. Surprisingly all 12 body mount bolts came out fine;

Started cleaning up the seat rails. They look like they'll turn out pretty nice when I'm done. Then I had an accident with a wire wheel on the angle grinder so I quit for the night.
