Do it like we do in the Tankograd factory. Here we see the body of Keith's tank being lifted off for chassis work. Once clear of the chassis, it's attached to overhead girders out of the way. For your chassis I would make a drive under shell using side legs to screw on the shell for storage (off the wet ground, dry and happy under a tarp). The back would unscrew, attach the four legs and back it out.

Interglacials are short and then we enter the nasty brutishness of the glacial periods.

My tank liften right off the top of my lawn mower. I hooked a large pulley up in a tree and pulled it tight with my truck. Unbolted it from the frame and lifted it right off the top of the lawn mower. I then sat it down on a pallet off the ground and then covered it up with a tarp for safe keeping. When I go to re mount it all i got to do is hook my truck up and pull it up then lower it back down on the frame and bolt it back on. Only took about 15 minutes to take it off...

That is what my side kick said, was to rig a lift to a tree and set it down on a stand. Then just back up under it and lift it back on. I could do something like that in the building I store it in. It is nice to have family next door with sheds and buildings/garages to use.
