How do I replace the floor in my 1965 Ford Mustang?

I’m restoring a 1965 Ford Mustang. I’ve stripped it down to a rolling chassis, and in the process discovered that the floor panels are rusted through in several places. I’ve also discovered evidence that the car had been in a front-end collision. I wanted to do a lot of the body work myself, but now I’m worried that cutting out the entire floor will cause the chassis to bend. I’m also worried that the chassis may already distorted due to the collision. How do I replace the floor without warping the chassis, and how can I be sure that the chassis is straight?
