Yes, that rust is normal. A mate lifted a body off once, all the mounting bolts, steering ,exhaust, tank filler pipe and various brake/fuel pipes and wiring to release. He then lifted it with a plank through the front door's, webbing strap to a block and tackle and a home made scaffold frame (on wheels). then lift and see what you have forgotten to undo. good luck.

It being a "Classic" leave it outside for a while it will fall off.
Ooo, put your claw's away.
