72 Pro Street Dart

I would remove the torsion bars from the trunk lid,as the braces need to have thier wheel well spot welds drilled out.
I didn't took em off i just cut braces close to the tub then when i took the halve of the tub out i grind the spot welds so no holes to fill later, then cut the remaining of the brace of the hinge support and add the fabricated piece to weld the tub and support together, following the contour of the trunk support.
you can see it in this picture!
