I have a 68 P1800 on which I completely rebuilt the front end including sndblasting and repainting all the components including all stainless steel fasteners. I have aquired a 2nd P1800 with a much better body . I want to install my rebuilt front end into the new 1800 as a complete unit. I would disconnect the brake lines, steering link, etc. and unbolt the crossmember from the frame and remove it as a whole unit. I'd leave the wheels on and roll it under the new 1800 ( that has had the front end removed in a similar fashion)and bolt it to the frame and reconnect brake lines etc. Can this be done?, Has anyone tried it? How high does the front of the car need to be jacked up? Where would you place the jacks? Under the side frame rails? Is this a practial solution? I'd hate to think that I'd have to disasemble the whole front end to exchange them. Any suggestions? Thanks RDB
