Did you have the body off the frame?
When I rebuilt my 3 I took all the removable panels off the body but
left the body on the frame. Both floor boards and sills were replaced,
one at a time, with the body on the frame, and the rear valance was
replaced with a new one. All the body panels just bolted back on in place.
