A distance of 34" from floor to bottom of rocker panel, will allow plenty of room to roll an assembled chassis (minus engine & transmission) out the back of the car.

Dipping a body or sandblasting it to remove undercoating is something I've never considered. If you have used either method in the past, and you're comfortable with it; go for it. Seems like a lot of undercoatng that was applied at the factory, would have to be replaced before paintng.

Edit: Make sure the radiator support is securely supported along with the body when it is off the frame. That is one of the reasons the chassis is rolled out the back of the car.
