Hello thanks for looking. Gonna replace the front trunk floor pan and the panel that the front bumper attaches too. Restoration designs calls it the "latch panel". On the picture I posted it's panel number 13. Any advice on doing this without a celette bench?

Thanks

Bill

You need to hold the car in place somehow.
Build a frame out of tall (in profile) boxed steel, or I beams.
Weld stands from that to both sides...so a piece of square tubing the same length from the ibeam to the rear firewall seam.
Basically, attach the car, parallel and ideally level to the beam.
