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...

I think this is the first thing I am going to do when I bring Bruenhilda home. I have thought about doing it several times and just never got around to it (like many things in life).
This is /very/ helpful and I will be looking at it a lot over the coming months. Pray (to whatever god(s) you wish or exert your will or what have you) for me that the place where my drivers side seat punched through the floor (inboard rear) is the only real rust I have (I know it won't be, but I can hope). Thanks for the valuable blog - I will try and do the same when I get my project started. God DAMN I love this site! |
