I have new rockers for my 62 lark, I see 3 bolts toward the back end. What holds the front? Are they welded? Are these a real pain to change? Thanks!

They are welded. I use a air chisel to remove, then a MIG welder to install.

A small carborundum cutting wheel may remove them with less damage to the floorpans. With either tool [u]</u>WEAR EYE PROTECTION[u]</u>.
And after doing several of these, I said to myself, "Self, wouldn't good quality 3M seam sealer and shallow head stainless sheet metal screws hold this rocker panel in place?"
The door gasket hides the screw heads and, ten years later, it still seems fine.[^]
