Hi folks. I’m picking up my coupe in June and am planning out my build. One question I have is concerning the need for a body buck. I have seen many posts about a body buck for the roadster. Does the coupe need one? If so, does anyone have a drawing of how to build one? Thx for your help.

If you're going to store it on the ground, I didn't find one was needed. The main body piece sits flat on the ground on the body sills. I put some blocks under the back to keep it from tipping and stay flat. The nose piece I stood up against the wall, resting on the back edge. If you're going to hang it up, like some do, then I'd probably make some kind of internal structure for support. I've seen some do that. Not aware of any plans.

FFR stated they have no plans for one and as EdwardB stated, it doesn't need one.

I called in prepping for my upcoming build...

I did a 10 minute job, just to keep it off the floor - https://photos.app.goo.gl/vtXRG4T7hPDAwqKi8
