Re: Body / Chassis decoupling
To my knowledge, there is no factory information on "decoupling" the body from the chassis. In fact, this is not commonly done, and I have not really seen information on the attachment details. There was a friend in Holland who fully restored a Zagato Super Sport, and they pulled the body ...
