Here is how I mount the car to the jig. The bolts go into the factory holes and mount and un-mount quickly and cleanly. Now your set up looks pretty smart. Can you share more pics for us so we can see the pic up points underneath and the overall jig. Nice work. Thanks. I'll have to scare up some pics, unfortunately there are none on this computer.

Here are a few shots of the build. I built the framework on saw horses (not the ones pictured)leveled to the ninth degree but of course, the pieces would move around a bit after welding so I didn't add the uprights until the lower box was complete.
Using the frame chart, the first and last uprights were set to the datum line and the others were added to meet this line.

That is a really slick set up and it looks like it can be disassembled. Curious how you choose your pick up points. Did you solely go off of measurements from the book or the actual car to determine it will be perfectly square and level. I went off of the frame specs as provided by Ma Mopar. I knew I was going to cut the floor, trunk and quarters off and didn't want the car to boogie around and as the car was welded crooked from the factory (imagine that) I thought it best to start where it was supposed to be.
