Tom sounds great. If you have access to a forklift you can remove the entire body in just a few pieces. What I did was to remove the front and rear bumpers, 10 body mount bolts (including the 2 on the radiator support), disconnect all the hoses, lines, and electrical connectors, steering column, shifter, brake booster, r4emove the radiator, and don't forget to disconnect the emergency brake cable (clip on the firewall). Then lower the windows, put the forks of the forklift through them, and lift away. It did take me a few hours but anyway that's how I did it. I didn’t use any of the original sheetmetal. You may want to keep the brake booster and the steering column just in case. I didn’t use mine but you may want to. Well good luck my friend. You will probably need your body by Friday. Keep taking and posting pictures. Oh yeah and when you're on duty forget all about the car and focus on protecting and serving. In other words be safe!! Trust me this car can become a destraction. Just ask Rusty.
