Alright guys, I'm finally getting more of the rusted through floorpan cut out, but I need to know it this piece is structurally significant.
(IMG:http://mcchicken.homeip.net:2080/pics/2003-04-26/CNXT0009.JPG) It's almost rusted through, and I'd like to cut it out, but I don't know. If it is important, can I weld in some tubing a little in front of it and cut out what's there? All I know is that this is a huge project, and I'm really sick of scraping out all that tar shit. |

nope, we take them out on all the race cars to mount the seats to the floor. all it does is holding the seat adjustment ratchet for the stock seats. if you plan on putting the stock seats back in, replace it with a good one, otherwise, cut it out ...
