Default Removing the fiberglass body from my CCX

I'm about ready to remove the 'glass body from my CCX. Everything is disconnected, steering shaft gone, wiring, etc. The hood is off, the trunk lid and doors still on. The interior is out, the engine and transmission is out. Now for the questions:
How do I handle the body? Is it ok for four guys each to lift by a wheel well? What's the best way to lift it? How much can I expect it to weigh? It is painted if that matters. Can 4 guys handle it? I intend to store it temporarily on the garage floor next to the car. My intent is to get two lengths of 6" x 6" wood, and have the body sit on them the same place it sat on the main frame rails. Is this ok? Any answers or ideas anyone may have are appreciated. It's my first time doing this and I don't want to mess it up. Thanks.
