Hi mate, there's 3 ways you can remove the body. lift the whole body off with a good size fork lift or crane or 4 large stands 2 polls, jack the body up slide the polls in under the body and sit on top of the stands and roll the chassis out. Or cut it up, cut all roof pillers at bass and remove roof. The pillers can then be folded in and roof folded in half. The rest can then be cut up in sections small enough to be lifted by 2 people. we cut the floor in line with the rear door just behind the rear seats and lift the load space away, then cut accross the floor behind the front seats and remove that section, then the last cut is accross the rear of the inner wings just in front of the bulk head. Lift off the front and then the bulk head and front foot wells. To do it this way the shell will have to be fairly stripped down, we do all the cutting with a 9 inch cutting disc on an angle grinder. would also be a good idea to have a fire extinguisher handy.
