OT: 914's are not the only thing that rust, This is in my garage Options

I started out to help a friend with some rust repair on his Mercedes. Things got a little out of hand.

I started on this car last year but had to put it on hold. I worked all summer, fall and early winter out of town.

The jig that you built.

Is that custom built for that car, or is it a universal table that can be reset for different sizes?

Here is my dilema.
I have a 356 that the front suspension was cut out.
The rear torsion tube was cut out.
I have both parts and all the chassis measurements.
I want to build a "jig" that I can pull down and push up the unibody with so I can get it and keep it square as I weld all the stuff back in.

I like the use of threaded rod, same Idea I was going to use.
At the end of the day, I would like it on rollers, so I will be building the lower portion of the jig similar to a steel truss to make it super rigid and strong enough to pull the car down and push it up...hopefully.

I guess I would rather not build a jig that is specific for this car because as you know I have a few ideas and projects that are on deck and a decent universal jig would be a better investment of my time in the long run.

So, any suggestions?
