Just a few "gotchas" to be aware of. From the description it sounds like a postformed top. If it is to be removed, and there is a joint, bad luck has it that the edges may self destruct because they may be glued together besides being mechanically fastened.
If the sink is in the top that is removed, it has to be disconnected. Bad luck has it that old plumbing doesn't work as good as new. The supply shutoffs, may not shut off completely, or the handle could just break off. Old fittings that are left on (or off) for long period (some many years), are very unpredictable.
If the top is a postformed top...integrated short backsplash (curved), and the front edge (curved), don't even try to remove the laminate from the particleboard, as it will never go back on it correctly.
