ok, I did the passenger side floor pan today after I got off work, before sundown(need more lights in the garage), removed all the tar(about 2 1/2 hours, a heat gun and a putty knife)
there is some funky "glue" looking stuff under the tar paper... what gets this off? aircraft paint stripper did nothing to it... there is a little rust along the horizontal support... where the tar met the weld... the area is very small, and doesn't extend "up" onto the cross piece... how should I fix this? I'm thinking of rust killer, and then weld in a little angle-piece for extra support... is this ok, or do I need to cut all of this and weld in a new piece ? here are a few pics, there are more in the BLOG, please give me your opinions...

ok, so I got home early today, ready to go at it, it's a great day weather-wise, it rained earlier so it was almost "cool" (80s, compared to hi 90s), even got my rebuilt pedal assembly from Eric in the mail! perfect right? well, almost... I get home, and look for the garage opener... it's in my daily driver... problem is: I dropped that POS off at the shop today to get a tune up and have them check out why it's idling rough, before I take it out of town this weekend... and the shop didn't get around to it today (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/dry.gif) so, here I am, perfect day to be in the garage, and no way in hell to get into the fucker!! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/headbang.gif) the apartments only issue one opener, and they don't have another way in.. so I'm here: (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/beer3.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/type.gif) when I should be: (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smash.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/welder.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/blowtorch.gif)
