The body and the frame are now sitting side by side. I opted to take the frame out from the side to allow for clearance. The right rear mount is rusty and I did not want to put any more pressure on this point by raising the body any more. I used a jack with wheels to pull the body out a little at a time. I moved the stands to clear the frame and it slid out easily. Once out, I added some supports to the body for storage. I am working on adding a perminant stand for the body with wheels so I can move it around as needed.
The frame looks very good. All of the rust is surface rust and it will clean easily.
The next few days will be a cleaning and re-organization of the garage again. Having both the frame and the body in the garage takes up a lot of room. (I did not plan on needing this much room) With the motor going on a stand, there will be little room for anything else unless I clean and organize.
