I pulled the warped frame out from under a Caprice I was doing up for a Roadhog (racecar). Since I didn't care about damaging it I threw a chain through the middle and we cut the body loose from the frame, took the tractor and yanked 'er off!! Yeah it bent the middle of the roof, but it definatly was effective, don't recommend doing that with the Chevelle. I have a friend who says to use jacks to get the body up and then roll the frame out from under it, I don't know how I'll end up doing mine, but I know I'll need more room than what I have got.
