These little mending plates from Todd Clarke are great - can be riveted or welded on from the inside so you don't have to rip apart the B pillars. The nuts are welded onto the back already with the correct spacing. You have to either enlarge the holes or cut a slot.

Oops - sorry, that is a pic of the plate I made and then discarded - Todd's are much nicer with the proper captive nuts, etc.
