Budget Frame Alignment Bench
Mark Kinnaman and I are making a frame straightening/fixture bench for a couple project cars we are working on. Here is the 14' rectangular frame with screw down legs for leveling.

We pulled off the suspension of the low mileage 1976 Project and lifted it on the crane to drop on the new bench
