Dropping my 69 convertible back on the frame this weekend.

Is there any safe way to do it with 2 people and a cherry picker?

i did mine with my son with two floor jacks and some 4x4s. Had the frame on rolling casters lifted the body and rolled it under then let it down in place

did mine the same as tom rolled the frame under lower the body close to the frame place the jack stands under the rocker pinch weld to support the body then removed the 4x4. jacked the frame up to the body and removed the jack stands. obviously lower the front and back of the body evenly and slowly.
