I still feel better welding 'em. Before I did, I rewelded all the spot welds
in the area and properly tied in the wheelwell and "B" pillar pieces. I then
welded the hoop bases (kinda triangular shaped as big as would fit) to these
side panels as well as the floor/package area thereby tying all that together.

My rear braces don't go to the sheet metal, they were welded to angle plate
reinforcing the frame part that sticks through to floor area. The only
trouble with that setup is with these tubes being straight, I had to beat in
the wheelwells some to allow clearance. I felt better putting them to the
reinforced frame, than to plain sheet metal.
