I am in the process of replacing the floor pans. I have the car on a rotissiere. I can drill out the spot welds with my Blair spot weld cutter. This is still a lot of work and my elbow is protesting. What if I were to cut the pans out but leaving the strips of metal where the spot welds are and weld the pans ofer the top. Is this ill advised? My thoughts were to save time and maybe more metal is better. Less chance of weaking the long with welding heat.
