<< The consensus was basically that if your body is in poor shape you might
want to consider making some repairs *prior* to removing the body from
the frame. Apparently the sills are the big concern, it seems that the
body can just break in two there if it's rusty and you lift it
incorrectly. Many respondents mentioned bracing across the door
openings to beef this area up before lifting it off.

Bracing accross the door opening is normally a must do if you want your doors
to close properly after a body off rebuild. You can even buy special to type
braces I believe, from the TSSC in UK. (www.tssc-hq.demon.co.uk/TSSC.html)
