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, I've got ALMOST all of the seam sealer crap off... how much do I really NEED to remove? all thats left is some hard to reach spots up under the driver's side dash... no rust has been under any of it...
also, there *WERE* 2 black plastic screw looking things near the center tunnel in the back... I THOUGHT these were metal and was cleaning the sealant from around them... they got chewed the fuck up and are no longer with us... what was the purpose of these? and can I just put a bolt in their place? |
