the question was where to reinforce the body, not how to get the top off.

You will have to reinforce the shit out of the floor and the rocker area would be a great idea too. That mother is gonna want to fold up a little when you cut the roof off. Then open the doors and watch what happens. Not good. I suggest a whole new frame built into the floor.
