depending where u start form, ususally the engine is a good start. remove this, probably followed by the interior(doesnt really matter what really) then i would sugest removing the front subframe and keep the hand brake on. then once the fron end is removed and the car is on axel stands i would jack the rear up and remove the 8 bolts. though i sould remove the pertol tank battery and so on first(just read about removing subframes in the haynes)

basically use a little common sense and a haynes manual and u cant go too wrong, if u need any more help just ask.

Remove the shell?
Try thinking of it the other way around – you have to remove all the oily bits such as the subframes and engine from the car to leave the shell!
