C3 corvette: rebuild part 1 - deconstruction and debonding

This is half of a 1969 corvette project I'm starting on. I started the debonding process of removing the body from the birdcage when I noticed a few fiberglass issues that led to bigger body work problems.

My intent is to remove the roof support beam and then utilize it on another birdcage I have that's in better condition to create a complete coupe chassis for a new build. I had hoped to use some of the body, however discovering the history of these panels has led me to other decisions.

The deconstruction has helped me learn a lot about the construction of this car, and hopefully it might help give others direction as well.
