Re: Henry's 1938 M/N 1182 restoration project

I've been waiting for a body cart to show up that I ordered, but in the meantime, I fabricated an adjustable lift arm for the shop crane to hopefully lift the body after it is braced. If this doesn't work, we'll have to use the backhoe I guess. When these cars were built at the factory they used straps through the door openings from what I was told, so I hope this works.
They do make arms similar to this, but I made mine stronger and cost 1/4 of thier price
