well the Type 3 is BLOODY heavy so remove the doors, guards back door and bonnet then the glass and fuel tank and the seats
this will reduce the weight heaps and you will only need 5 of your mates to help you lift the body off
there are 13 bolts down the side and 4 inside under the rear seat similar to a beetle
there are 4 on the front end and 4 on the rear end
