Easy?  Not that I'm aware of.

Expensive?  Probably.

The LM verts have an "inner rocker reinforcement".  Usually the outer rocker 
panels will show rust through before there is damage to that inner ZZZZZZ 
bar piece.  But, 45+ years after manufacture and whatever usage and 
storage... who knows?

Later, JR
