rocker panel removal question

How did you guys deal with the area in front of the door where the body overlaps the rocker panel? That looks like the toughest area that the old rocker panel is tied in to. The steel that overlaps the rocker in this area has a lot of bends and contours in it, I would rather not have to reconstruct much of this part just to get the old rocker out. Replacing the rockers looks like a mess.

Just drill out all the old spot weld's all the way round . Plus three or four spot welds up the rear fender at the door then acouple of taps with the rubber mallet and the rocker panel drops right off. Make sure you remove the door first and only do one side at a time. If you have all the reqd equip plan on one day per side.
