I will add a couple more comments to Rob's note. If you don't have a
digital camera yet, this is the perfect excuse to get one. When I pulled
the body on my TR-250 to make the same repairs you are contemplating, I took
lots of pictures. They came in handy during the rebuild process.
My frame was in good shape and I was desperately trying to avoid catching
shipwright's disease, so although I pulled the tub, engine/trans and
completely disassembled the front suspension, I pretty much skipped the rear
end, and found a reputable welder with a portable rig to do the welding and
gusset installation. That may save you some hassle trying to get the
no-longer-rolling car to a welder.
