My floor boards got some rust. Infact one of me seat brackets came right off. So I pulled out the seats. No structural damage yet. It looks minimal to what ive seen. Mabey I caught it early enough. I will get to the point now
I may not need an entire floow pan and if I dont have to pay 115 bux for one I wont!
What steel could I replace the floors with? Perhaps I only need to replace small sections. Cold rolled mild steel? What gauge thickness?
I intend on using Mig welder.
I got some Naval Jelly. Couldnt find POR 15 at the hardware store.
Sugestions, comments, welcome!

If you only see a "little bit" of rust, get yourself a cup brush on an angle grinder to reveal much more...

I was amazed at how many tiny holes there were. And like you, I only had a "little bit" of rust. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/unsure.gif)
