    Inverted Body Buck

    I'm getting ready to tackle bodywork by doing the inner wheel lips, skim coating of visible areas to smooth the surface, and some fiberglass patches. I figured it'd be easier to do the inside work with the body flipped upside down, so I made a front and rear adapter for my existing buck and added a little additional support in some areas.





    Later,
    Chris

    Great idea. It would have been more trouble for me working by myself so I used old sheets and rubber pads to roll it over. Definitely the way to go for that edge work and coating the underside. It's just sort of pitiful looking, laying upside down. I hope that is the last time mine is in that position!!! WEK.
