Removing Top & Frame from Vehicle
I am planning on a body re-spray. I want to remove as much as possible before sending off to the body shop. How challenging is it to remove the top frame and top from the vehicle? Is it a matter of removing the bolts from the big brackets in the trunk area, anything else? How hard is it to align afterwards upon re-install? I am familiar with some basic panel alignments after removing panels for paint - ie marking current locations as a guide reference before removing, but curious regarding the top. Any suggestions are much appreciated.

It’s only held on by the rear bolts.Once you remove them you can lift the frame right off
