I would start by removing one of the qtr panels. Once you get one of the qtrs removed (follow 67'7F6'Bird posts/pictures here)....you will see how the outer wheel house is spot welded on. Once you remove the outer wheelhouse, then you will be able to get a good look at the inner wheelhouse and where all its spot welds are. The inner wheel house actually spotwelds to the trunk sheetmetal and to the floorpan seam, and the package-tray/trunk lid hinge support. There are several totally different areas where the inner wheelhouse is spotwelded to.

Make sure you have a good spotweld cutter. An air chisel as 67'7F6'Bird used during some of his removal will also come in handy for removing the old sheetmetal.
