Its a waste of time If you cut the chassis rails off the body it will need to be re engineered and when you weld it back on you will bugger the new paint.
Unlike the HQ series it isnt a separate chassis.

However, I have painted the chassis on a VK before you need to setup an A frame from and rear and basically rotate the car clean it up, mask it up and paint it then mask off the chassis rails when you paint the underside of the body. Pretty straight forward just a big job

body and chassis is not seperable your best bet is to put the body on a rotiserrie to detail the chassis and underneath.
