Thanks to some valuable advice from a couple of Listers, I have 
successfully removed the steering wheel and column, and am now 
preparing to lift the body from the frame. Bearing in mind the low 
bending resistance of the door opening section of the body, I am 
wondering just where and how many lifting points I need in order not 
to distort the body too much. Or should I reinforce the door opening 
in some way?
  And as a side question, does anyone know how much the body weighs 
when stripped of all removable parts?
