We are looking to install new rear frame rails + entire trunk floor.
This is our first restoration. We've done front frame rail passenger side thus far, it was easier since no reinforcement was needed. Everything is off the car except body and rails etc.
What would be best way to reinforce the car to prevent any movement while doing one rear rail at a time followed by the trunk floor?
Not sure the quarters can hold the car together as they are rusted also and need to be replaced (half of them)
Not the entire rear rails are being replaced but half of each. I bought the rear pieces already.
the rear cross member is still good.

Just curious where abouts to reinforce with some angle iron or pipe
The car is on a hoist we dont have any rotisserie or jig.
