Body removal.
I’m close to the point where I can remove the body off the frame. Ive seen the videos of people supporting the nose of the car during this process but they usual have headlights and other things still attached. I’ve completely stripped the front of mine. Should I still support the nose or would it be ok until I get it on a dolly. It’s going on a dolly as soon as I pull it.

Take your radiator out and leave the radiator support bolted to the body and run a strap from your central lift point to the top of the support. Depending on how you are lifting your body, it will want to tip forward, like if you are lifting with an engine hoist like I did. Always keep the front supported.
