I pulled my truck body off complete and was pondering the same as you, so what i did, was invited a few friends over, since having a car trailer I donated the bed, body and fenders to the frame. took off the rear axle and all front suspension parts. then I began sanding and sand blasting (outside the garage) and went to my local NAPA store. I picked up red oxide primer and rust o leum satin black paint. After a about a week or so, I was done with the frame. Yes you can do it all by yourself and yes it all takes time. the more you do it by yourself the happier you'll be of what you've done.
