Here are some pics of my truck to give you some ideas on how to fix yours.
I bent up the quarters out of 16G cold rolled and used a piece of 8'' water main to bend them around.
The rear of the body is 2x2 tube with a 1/8'' wall thickness. I used a small piece of 16 bent at 90 to join the rear floor to the rear 2x2.
PM me with your email address and I can send you some more pics
Note the body braces - need to do so to keep everything in alinement.
Also note the interrupted style welds - a series of spot welds vs short stitches. Lay down a tic tac sized bead, wait for it to stop glowing in your mask and they lay down another one. Use .023 wire and 75/25 mix. Keep your stick out at about 1 cm and remember, "tight is right, clean, shiney and bright" when it comes to welding, prep is everything. If stuff fits well together, is clean and the welder is setup right, it's pretty darn easy.
