I'm expecting my kit within the next two weeks, already built a chassis dolly, now looking to build a body buck. Figured before I do so I'd ask if anyone is done with theirs in the greater Boston area.

A body buck is really not needed. Buy a couple of inexpensive kayak lifting devices for either end of the body and put a 2x4 brace across the cabin cowls and you're done. The beauty of this system is that it is a one man operation to lift and lower. You'll appreciate it when you go to test fit the body multiple times. I built a body buck and quickly ditched it. Live and learn!
