My new 71 SSP! Any advice accepted!

You could ask MoparMark (?) on this website and I’m sure a few others to get a non-rusted out factory piece from a salvage car (I recommend OEM pieces) I 100% agree you should add at least some “basic” frame connectors. You can post a wanted add on this site or moparts.com and find a console (interior paint to match your color). Nice car!

That’s who I got mine from…and a bunch of other parts.

@DudeBroDerk did you find the Broadcast Sheet for your car?

Unfortunately no the seats have all been changed and whatnot

It’s just metal, no magic to it and since it’s not a rare or highly valuable car I’d cut out the rust and make new patch panels to replace them. If you do it right (as in take your time, make good cuts, cut far enough back to be into good metal, and make accurate patch panels) you can make the repair almost invisible and definitely invisible if you put some paint and/or some undercoating (I use HF spray on bed liner).
