Right then!

In preparation for the Vixen S1 transformation planned at the end of this year, What is the best method employed to remove a bonded body shell?

Do you leave the flat floor connected to the chassis and cut the floors out of the body?

What is the consensus of opinion regarding restoration. is it best to then convert the body to Bolt on or re-bond the salvaged floor back to the restored chassis.

is it a case of making a new floor pan to go back into the shell?

This is the only part of the planned restoration that is phasing me a little. I can see the purchase of some fibreglass technique books in the offing.

All advice gratefully received.

Neil.

PS Any one got the body off one so I can have a look?
