Howdy All I am in the process of getting the tools together to redo my 68 coupe. I plan on putting on a rotisserie in the spring. My questions are

1 Will I need door spreaders
2 I have to weld in a quarter panel should I do it on the rotisserie or before I put it on it?

I know when I do the quarter panel skin it needs to on the frame not the suspension.

Thanks Mike

Seeing that it is unibody..... The quarters are actually part of the structure. IMHO...
- place the car on a true, flat and level surface. Ensure the body is square by measuring the critical points from underneath.
- support the car on the frame sections
- replace your quarter panels and any other structural panels
- mount to a rotisserie
- repair the underneath

Thanks I just around to pulling the engine and tranny this last weekend. I have the front clip off getting ready to pull the interior this next weekend. Thanks for the reply I will weld in the QTR before the rotisserie.

Thanks Mike
