I prefer the frame off method myself, but in doing so the car is out
of commision for minimum 6 months and probably for a year or much
more. Obviously the overall restoration is somewhat nicer, but not
having the car unavailable to drive is a detriment. I know, I've
spent 10 years waiting to drive my Spitfire. I would have been able
to drive it today if a blizard with 12" of snow hadn't shown up!!
Which ever method you choose you can't go wrong. You are doing
something to improve the condition of the car and thats important.
Sorry I can't help on the non-frame off restoration question.
