Pretty tough to lift manually from the sills since it has to go high enough to clear the steering. I suppose I could remove the steering but they were dropped onto the chassis in the factory somehow. I've watched assembly line videos from the model A era and they seem to do it like I did my tudor but haven't found how they did the deliveries. Perhaps Brent Terry can chime in on how he did it.

I am certain when you refer to "he", you are speaking of Henry or Edsel. I have not seen anything written or documented on this for the 79A/B, or 130A/B type bodies. Then, how about bodies such as the 76A/B, the 140A, -or even 150A/B where there is not even a (-or at least a substantial) roof to attach lifting points to. That will be interesting to research.
