This is going to be my first time trying to repair rust on a 914, so hoping to get lots of help and advise as I try to tackle this job. I'll keep this thread updated with photos and questions as I move along.
Here's the areas that I'm going to look into/repair. I realize the visible exterior rust is probably only the tip of the iceberg, so I'm preparing myself mentally for the worst.
This is the passenger side where the rear floor pan meets the rocker area. Someone thought they were doing good by putting a crappy spot welded patch over who knows what.
Here's the same area viewed from the back. Notice the rust extends around the donut as well.
The driver side looks better but there is one bad area with a hole. Similar location as the other side but the donut section is all good.
Current questions....
Are there reproduction panels that will replace these areas? I thought maybe floor pans would extend all the way to the rocker, but looking at the catalogs it seems they stop right in the middle where my rust is.
Am I going to have to custom make patch panels?
I see the donut triangle is available for that section.
I'm going to start by removing my interior and then the rocker covers. I'll then post more pics of what I find.
Thanks in advance to all who help me out along the way!
