I just Googled it there and the web seems to be awash with threads on the dos and donts of body removal. Seems fairly straightforward if approached in a methodical manner.

Good luck with the project. They are a lovely car and well worth preserving.
Body off rebuilds are a big undertaking. I am halfway through a Triumph GT6 at present.
