I think the presumption is that the threads are rusted solid. If the mudguard has been off in recent times you might be lucky.
The appearance inside should give an indication of state. Destroyed or drilled threads can be tapped larger. Beware any combination of threads likely. Nuts can be used but assembly awkward for one person but no more so than many other cars.
If as is common on cars which have not received attention, the inner guard area is very rusted you may wish you had never started!
