While we are discussing lifting the body..

My TR6 is in pretty good shape and the body and interior is in fine
fettle. The frame is solid but really needs some preventative
maintenance. My choices are to attend to the frame as best I can while I
do a front and rear end refurb this winter or consider lifting the body
off the frame so that I can do a more thorough job of cleaning up the
frame and suspension.

How realistic is it to consider separating the tub from the frame just
to attend to surface rust and maybe some reinforcement of strategic
points on the frame ? Is removing the body only a full multi-year
restoration exercise or can it also be considered for a frame refurb
over the winter ?
