Has anyone tried to store their fiberglass body suspended from the ceiling while working on the chassis? If so, please let me know how you did this, or share any other body storage ideas? I have a 2-car garage I am using just for this project.
 
i did it with both my ffr roadster and coupe. used a canoe hoist to lift the bodies into the ceiling. just make sure you properly brace the body to avoid flex

I made a rack and hang the front clip using the bobbin mount slots. The rear I stand on the front flat edge and just put it against a wall in the garage with a safety strap to keep it from being knocked over.

Make one of these. Wood will work just fine.

You could fit a new roof on your garage that has attic space. But that's OTT for most people. :rolleyes:
