Of course, adequate bracing needs to be in place. Fun stuff!
That would probably be the smart thing to do.

New full floor, full trunk, full quarters, both inner and outer rockers, new trunk lid and not to mention the other area's of the car (door skins, etc.) and I will end up with all brand new metal. I just hope in the long run everything lines up straight with decent gaps.

Thanks Ron.
