You'll likely need much more than just a floor pan. Be sure to check the condition of the longitudinal bottoms. The floor pan welds to the bottom of the longitudinals. If they are not solid you'll be trying to weld to rust. That doesn't work so well. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Also check the longitudinal where the seat belt attachment is. Many of these rusty cars are a rolling death trap since that seat belt attachment is also rusted out and will not hold the force of an impact should it be necessary. Yours appears to be pretty far gone. Don't shy away from a proper fix. Dig in and just do it! |
