Body off/outrigger replacement

[TJC46]

Hi guys forgive me if this topic has been "done to death" but having recently purchased a 1997 4.0ltr chim i intend to lift the body off strip down the chassis and then shot blast, weld new outriggers in if required, repaint, and reassemble. Has anyone on here done this themselves? Has anyone made an idiot proof list of exactly what needs to be removed off the car, location of all the points where the body is fastened to the chassis, etc. What wiring has to be removed/undone etc. Im not a complete novice as i did a very similar job on an S3 that i had, but every tvr model is different and the chimaera is all new to me. Any links to previous posts concerning this would also be appreciated, thanks Tom. I hope to post pics of before, during and after as i do this thru the winter months. The before pics of the outriggers should be of interest to one and all, as they look in good condition now, but im sure they will look quite different once the body is lifted and the chassis is shot blasted.

There is a complete list of things to do on the Griff forum as well.
