Was it possible to buy just the outer floor edge repair panels in the past, say the 1990's.?
The car i have just started to investigate has butt welds along both driver and passenger sides, poorly excuted though.! The sections are ribbed indicating they are bought panels.

There is also a crease/ raised section on the long, not sure how that happened. ?

Any of you long term restorers know if you could buy these floor edge pieces way back ?

Here's a couple of pictures.

Many thanks.
Dave

The outer longs are solid and i can clearly see they have been replaced. I will be unpicking them to sort out the poor quality work. I knew what i was getting myself into with this one. There is no evidence of an accident as yet. Floor looks super straight and the edge repair is same on the drivers side. The metal guy wouldn't be the first to buy a whole panel and just use the edge sections, make's sense if cheap enough.
