What do most people do when restoring a car? I'm thinking about welding it and body working it.

I am breaking down a 1976 280z to prep for media blasting. As I was breaking down the hatch, I noticed inside it that there was a bracket in the lower middle, just above the release button. It's not attached to the outer skin. It almost looks like there was a piece of foam between it and the sheet metal. Can anyone shed some light on this?

I prefer an in-tank pump

Here is a picture from inside the tank

I have a 1976 280z. This was the gas tank that was installed. I pulled it out to install an fbody plastic tank for my LS swap. I know there was a difference between early and late 280z tanks. Can anyone tell me how to confirm which tank this is? Also what would something like this be worth? It's in great shape.

Thanks for the comments. I suspect that it is supposed to drain out the front. It's hard to judge since I cut the panel out for repair. I am in Minnesota but the car spent it's whole life in Texas so not sure how it rusted in there.

I am working on my 76 280z. The recess behind the gas door was rusted out in one corner. See pictures below. I noticed that the backside was seam sealed all the way around. Where is gasoline or more importantly water supposed to go when it gets in there? Obviously you don't want to have gasoline leak on the back side of the quarter panel because the smell would be inside the cabin. Has anyone welded in a nipple in the corner and attached a hose that runs down and empties on the ground? That's my current plan.
