Default Front clip remove

Have a 69 convertible that needs floor and trunk replaced want to remove front clip as one unit so body can go on rotisserie. Does anyone know how to remove the front clip as one unit or any videos on how to do it?

Thanks

Hello, I am redoing a 69 convertible also. Are you just tring to take the sheet metal off, or subframe as well?

"Front clip" refers to the body panels forward of the firewall, together as a unit. You can remove the entire clip, then you can tackle the subframe. You don't want to try and remove the subframe & clip together, that's not going to work well. There's too much to the job to try and give directions in a thread, so your best bet would be to pick up an assembly manual for your car. And also search on youtube, you're likely to find some additional info there.
