Looking for a section of rear firewall, about 3 ribs wide and 6 inches tall. Also need 6 wing mount recessed pressings cut around an inch outside recess.

Make a tool to make the wing pressings like I did ?  Getting the square nuts is easy and you just silver solder them in for that correct factory look.

Where do you get the nuts from?

I need 6. 

The lower holes on the bottom edge of the front and rear quarters  I can press as these are loose repair panels. The other areas I need to fix wouldn't give access for a press tool, they are mid panel?
