I talked to the guy about the panel today.
He stated that they will try to make it into a historical vehicle therefore avoiding the torch.
And I would be able to get it out in one piece.
If that does not fly we went over as to how to get it out in three parts.

I took some of your advice with me and gave it to him like this:
First part would consist of the whole front clip including the engine and front axel, hub to hub.
Second would consist of all the doors, running boards, both seats and any other interior components.
Third would leave the whole body off the frame and on to my trailer.
The frame would have to stay.
I tried to convince him of making the whole frame with the axles and engine as one part. I think he might go for it.
He too does not want to see it cut up, But he is just following protocol

Question is "What am I going to do with a 1ton body if the frame stays"?
I know I will use the rear barn doors (they have the deluxe ss),the driver and pass doors w/ss,grill,fenders (holes and clips for the seargent strips but no strips) and some of the interior components.
The seats are spoken for by a friend.

Would any body need a 1 ton panel body?
