Core support installed and one fender rough fitted. The battery area was pretty well rotted..battery holder, inner fender, fender and core support all had rust damage and where all repaired with varying levels of finish. I used the bottom of a 50 Ford Crestliner door to replace the bolting flange on the bottom of the core support.

Here's the fender I reworked. You'll be happy to know I put sheetmetal from a 68ish BelAir in this fix

The new paint was rubbed out with steel wool to match old finish.
