The bulkhead is attached to the frame with two main bolts that run
thru the outriggers below the door and 4 additional bolts that run
thru braces on the frame.  The engine can remain in place but you will
need to remove fenders and floorboards and steering column, if they
are still in place.  Soak all the nuts and bolts with penetrating oil
first and it should be a day's job.
