Suggestion: never attempt to lift a TR body with the doors removed.  You
run a risk of folding the body in the middle.  The only thing stopping it
is the rockers and they are not rubust in the best of times and if they are
rusted there is no structural stiffenss there at all.  You can remove the
bonnet, boot lid and wings (hood trunk lid and fenders) but leave the doors
in place and latched.

Just a friendly reminder.

Dave
