If there is any danger of body flexing when you remove it from the frame,
then weld or bolt in (welding preferred) some reinforcement.
If you are confident with your welding skills then fix the body while it's
off (it's easier to get at everything)
If you aren't confident, fix it when it's on the new frame. Then you can
check your work as you progress.
