Spent some quality time with my old and rusty floor pans. Tore most of the bad metal out, but still have a few sections that need to go (outlined in red). I will cut out the rear lap joint spot welds and remove that too. Ignore the apprentice marks and extra hole in the rocker, it's my first attempt at a job of this nature. ;)
I have L and R AMD replacement panels and would appreciate some tips/advice on where to stitch the new floor pan back in.
1) The front joint at the firewall looks fairly complicated, would it make sense to stop short of there and butt/lap weld across the front? Any advice for tackling that area would be great.
2) The outboard seatbelt anchor area seems fairly annoying, and harder to cut the floor pan away since it is right up against the rocker. Any advice there? The vertical metal is good, I could repair what I started pretty easily.
Thanks in advance.
