Default 65 Tempest trunk repairs

I need to replace parts of the trunk floor around wheelhouse panels on both sides. From rear of wheel house back is workable.
Ames sells Trunk floor patch kit (K156).
My question is has anybody used these and do the body brace's all ready have the nuts attached?
Also my brace over the rear diff is shot, cage nuts broke had to cut holes inside trunk to get bolts out, oh by the way frame is out from under body, whats the best way to replace these pieces?
Thanks
Daryl

I’ve never done it but I’ve watched several very informative videos on YouTube. Just a suggestion. Good luck

I can't say about that specific kit. In my 64 we used the three piece goodmark floors and braces. The braces come with the cage nuts installed.
