There may be other ways, but that's what I did.


I am the owner and the body man.
FYI, The bolt heads are inside the frame, they snapped off at the frame. The nuts or clips are above the frame in the body.This is a very rusty car.
This is why I am asking what to do and do it the the right way.

Thanks
