Rusted away wheel wells, need resto help.

[prom8n]

Slowly restoring a '73, working on the real wheel wells, specifically the wall / bulkhead ahead of the wheels, behind the seats. Mostly rusted away, trying to replicate or at least repair the area.

Body is off and flipped upside down, so access is great. Using 20-gauge and wire feed welder. The original heavy brackets for seat belts and the mounts to the chassis are still there but not much else.

Anybody have pictures of this area NOT rotted away? Going for strength and rigidity, not appearance.

Many thanks.

Parts cars are readily available. I would just get a do or section.
