Building the Body Buck

My brother Roan was down visiting so I put him to work helping me build the Body buck. We completed it in a afternoon. All I have to do is to add the foam padding along the contour edges. I built a modified version of the body buck with the plans found here.

Roan starting on to build the frame while I work on the OSB board cutouts.

Finished body buck tucked away on the side of the house. I didn’t need this to be able to roll above the car but still wanted it elevated in order to store parts beneath the body.
