Mike glad your ok

Mr.P,
As others have said,I'm glad you are okay. I am glad it is just a setback,and not more severe.

Wow!! Sorry to hear that,Mike! I am glad you were not hurt...Did you figure out what happened?

If you dig deep enough there is always a bright side ...... At least it wasn't a customers car .... Hope that helped a little

Well I didnt get as much done today that I wanted to
so I will get the body attached tomorrow

all good things in time...

Dang, I hate that for you, and have been there myself. I have a similar story about lifts. I had one of my motorcycles on the lift working on it. Simple fix, didn't tie it down. Turned the ratchet a little too hard...over she went, opposite of me, in REALLY slow motion. Parts scattered all over the floor. Total loss, and parted it out on Ebay. Lesson learned here. I know you don't really have a lesson to learn (except maybe an elec. disconnect at lift), but know you are not alone! Glad you are fine, and car is fixable!

That suxs Mike.. Could have been worse, could have been injured, had some part of you body on the hospital side of the pinch point...

Well I got the body glued to the chassis today... so
hopefully it wont be falling off the hoist anymore

Glad you weren't hurt Mike. It's bad enough to have the setback of more body work.
We recently pulled the body off my car for painting. The guys couldn't find the electric winch, so we did it with a chain hoist! After what you went through, and others have said about this, I think I will stick with the hoist!
