You can do this. If you invest in the tools that you would have paid in labor you will be way ahead. A plasma cutter and 90 little suit case mig welder will get you a long way on this type of sheet metal and the bonus is you can use it for other projects.
Body shop jail isn't fun for anybody that gets caught up in it.
I helped replace the entire floor, inner/outer quarter, trunk, and rear body panel on a 68 bird. It is a big job, but nothing you can't handle. We did it for the first time and got some super results.
Good luck!
