If you are doing it yourself and do not have a plasma cutter, consider
getting one.
I am no expert, but I watched a TV show years ago where 2 fellows
replaced a rocker panel on a pickup truck. They used the plasma cutter
to remove the old one and it was pretty slick. They basically drew a
white line where they wanted to cut and then did so and got a pretty
smooth cut line. They avoided all of the drilling of spot welds and
prying of rusty pieces of metal off of the truck.
I want to get one but I need to upgrade the power in my garage in order
to be able to use things like that.

You need procedure 63-300 from Volume 2 of the 123 Service Manual, which
has lots of great pictures of where all the welds are and where to
cut etc.
I'd highly recommend you try to get a paper copy of both Vol1 and
Vol2 of
the "Service Manual Chassis and Body Series 123".
Karl, are you contemplating this surgery, or paying a pro to do it for
you?
I'd imagine a pro could work from a fuzzy .pdf on the CD, as he
already knows what it's talking about.
