diving into rot repair,tools/tips

My 67 k10 has rotted rockers,lower kick panels,edge of floor boards.

No rot on cab brace or the bolt hole cup thing that bolts to bottom of fender,but well see once its opened up.

Anyhow, I have no experience with this kind of body work,my dad does and has done a lot but that was 15-20 years ago.he will be doing most of it with me.

I have a local harbor freight, any tools you would suggest I get?
I have body magnets,flat end vice grips,lots of angle grinders and air cut off tools with a huge compressor. And a large older miller 35 welder with huge bottles.

Imma grab some tin snips and cutoff wheels,any other handy to that would ease the process?

I've read a lot on the board on the subject so far. Just need the little guidance on the tools and any nifty advice cutting and working with sheet metal on these trucks. Thanks guys.hope this goes well lol
