Hi all. My 72 Opel has quite a bit of rust, which requires a lot of cutting and welding. I was planning on using the jack stands to pivot the body uo to about 75 degrees. I planned on using 7/8" iron pipe that would fit through the jack stand and then place a larger diameter sleeve(on the outside of the jackstand). At the end I was going to use a tee fitting. This means the body (stripped of everything) would be supported by the two jack supports with the tee sitting on the floor. The body would be propped up securely with 2x4 and a safety strap.\
On paper it looks good but I was wondering what other people have done to rotate the body up so it could be worked on.
