Just got back from scoping out the salvage yard. I need to replace the sheetmetal structure that I removed to put in the new spring perches and framing. Trying to build something that looks half assed decent will be a royal b****. Looking at the metal inner fenders from a 1967 Country Squire wagon. They were still made with real metal and appear to be about the same gauge as my original inner structure. It would save me a ton of metal forming work for 40 - 50 bucks. The stamped metal would also look a lot cleaner than my hacked and welded original plan. It will still need to be cut to size and welded in though to make sure the unibody structure remains at least as strong as the original. They have lots of cool stuff over there, I need more money, and time.
