Default '69 Fastback needing New Front Frame Railes

So a few years back I ended up buying a '69 Fastback that needed to be restored, I wasn't able to go and check the car out myself as I was currently in Iraq and when I got back I found out that the front frame rails were put on poorly, were of different lengths, and crooked, and possibly not even the right front frame rails. I was originally planning on doing a tubular chassis but after years of waiting to try to save up the money only for other things to come up, I've finally decided it might be easier, cheaper, and more likely to happen, if I just get the parts and get friends of the family with the equipment to to properly install and weld them on.

The issue now comes when looking up sites that sell the front frame rails, but I want to make sure I make one order that will make sure I get everything I need so the job can be completed. Based off what I saw on the site I would need:
Front Frame Rail set 1 pc, Inner and Outer (Driver and Passenger)
Torque Box (Driver and Passenger thinking Scott Drake version)
Engine Crossmember

That's what I think I need for sure, I'm not sure past that and want to make sure I get everything I need so the job can be completed right and without any surprises. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
