I got my parts in tonight. 1 part is not what I expected, but I can make it work.

So, with all this in. I can weld the rear patch in, and should beable to reach the rear 3 bolts by reaching in from the front under the patch.

Now the front 2. I'm thinking weld a nut on the inside before I button everything up. Then run bolt in. I need to test fit parts together to see if thats possible. Or why gm didnt do that from day 1, and ran the bolts from inside-out.
