Fix/repair questions?

[86NeSSP]

OK, I have to fix/repair the drivers side frame rail under the shocktower to the core. What is the way others would go about the fix?

1. cut and replace as sheets (find donor and remove panels fron spotwelds and reweld new pieces back in place of old)?

2. Take the car to a frame shop have it pulled then replace the pieces as needed like above.

3. Pull engine and trans then cut the part of the frame rail out and section the piece that is bent and rotted. There are some other pieces here and there that need to be sectioned like a litte of the floor board or replace as a whole.

What do you think?

Here are the shots of the items that need to be replaced. the shock tower looks as there is a little bend to it where the frame rail pushed back into it.
