Default Gas tank braces

I need to replace my 73 trunk floor and gas tank braces and was wondering if anyone has used the ones from traraz's? I see thay have a 4 pcs. set for 70-73's for $139. I would think thay would be floor braces. The gas tank straps attach to them. Any info would be appreciated.

Don't have any experience with that company. However, I reused my original gas tank braces, spare tire and jack braces. Simply (perhaps not simply) drill out the spot welds with a spot weld drill bit.

Thanks, but the foor was rusted so bad that the braces are unusable. I really don't even know were to begin. Do I weld in a new floor and then weld in the braces? The other braces that attach the tail section are also almost rusted away, as are the hing areas. Does anyone know if there are any repops for these? Will the camaro stuff work for any of these areas? Oh yea, the tail section is also very bad. Please help this 73 formula.
