Without the sills, there is nothing to stop the car sagging in the middle - and you don't want that to happen! So
A) Finish one side before you start cutting anything off the other side B) If you have a hard-top, fit it, to add stiffness C) Particularly if you don't have a hard-top (and really even if you do), bolt or weld a brace across the top of the door gap before you start cutting anything out Also, don't be surprised to find far more rust in there than you expected. What starts out as a sill replacement often extends to floors, A-pillars... Don't forget to apply a liberal dose of Waxoyl (or equivalent) when you're done.
