I planned on gutting the interior this winter..now I'm looking at pulling the engine and having it rebuilt, kinda preemptive... so the question is, since I'm doing all this should I go ahead and lift the body off and POR15 the frame ? Is it a real big deal to do ?
Never done it before.

It's a time/labor intensive job, even with the engine & int. out. It never goes the way you think it will, so, plan on it taking at least 2-3 times as long as you had planned! I would think long and hard about pulling the body. My 2c
