71' Pillar Repair

Hi, new member and first post here.

Ive just picked up a 71 SWB Stepside that was hit in the windshield pillar. I have looked around and have not had much luck finding a the replacement sheet metal for this area. What would y'all recommend as a repair to this area?

I would say look for a parts truck on CL and cut it out on site
Not sure they make a patch panel for that.

The more I look at it, I think i might be able to pull it out and then if needed place a small patch in any places that just wont straighten up..

Get it pulled out it as much as you can. Cut your own sheet metal or duraglass if fairly close
