Thanks to all the generous and knowledgeable people on this site I've been able to make great progress on my 72 240 restoration.  I figured I would share a few pics to show the progress to date.

Car post tear down in September last year.  Had a decent Ferrari red paint job but rust was starting to show and I wanted to get it back to a pumpkin.

It had the usual rust.  I did the floors and frame rails myself last winter but I wasn't going to attempt any real bodywork!

 

Thanks to @motorman7 for the zinc plating tips and the name of a great place to get it done in AZ.  Here's a lot of shiny hardware!

 

Bins of the rusted undercarriage parts headed for the powder coater.

Things were looking pretty sharp post powder coating.  The PO installed Toyota four piston calipers on the front so I kept them.  

 

I got all my aluminum vapor blasted which turned out great as you can see on my distributor.

 

 

Bumper pieces ready to head out to the chrome platers.

 

After 6 months at the body shop I finally got the shell home!

Progress as of this weekend.  Starting to come back together!  I can never seem to get a good picture in my garage- probably a combo of the bright LED lights and my crappy 6 year old phone!

Can you spot the hidden headlight relays?  I'm also running a ZX alternator so the voltage regulator does nothing more than hide the necessary diode.

More to come!!!

Looks out of sight!

Beautiful,  reassembly is anyways the best part of the build.  How did you get it on and off that trailer?

Thanks!

Putting it back together with the everything being so clean is awesome. 

Getting it on and off the trailer was fun. Basically I would jack the car up by the frame rails high enough to get it on the stands that are in my first picture. Then I would jack the stands up and insert scaffolding wheels. It was a tilt bed trailer so I could roll it off. 

 

I was similar to you in using a wooden frame.

Looks like that worked just fine. Looks like a similar "before" color as mine. 

Here's my stands with wheels. My daughter was in charge of lowering it down. 

Here's a couple shots of the engine (mostly) installed. 

Here are some final pics of my pumpkin build..I finished it in June and spent a few weeks chasing leaks and dealing with a head issue caused by my engine guy.  Everything is now as it should be and I'm enjoying driving it!

Great job! The feeling of driving it must be so satisfying!
