Hello Keith, I have no specific info for a squareback, but for a beetle the body will be ok as long as the heater channels are solid (and you keep the body supported square). I have seen bracing welded in when the heater channels are holey. Usually the bracing goes across the door opening (maybe 4" up) with at least one diagonal brace (ie: driver's B pillar to passenger's A pillar). When I lifted my body ('70 standard bug) the heater channels were ok, but the drivers door still stuck alittle, so maybe bracing is a good idea anyways!
Good luck!
Dave
