Drivers floor pan repair

0 Comments

Rust for days…

My drivers side floor pans were in pretty horrid shape. You can see from the above picture that the drivers side was swiss cheese, and what you can’t see is the back had large rust holes as well. The passenger from has rust holes too, but not nearly as bad – and none on the passenger rear. For this week, I set out to repair the drivers side.

This repair was actually pretty straight-forward compared to the others. After chopping out all the rusted sections, I flanged it and put in a cut-to-fit replacement panel. It was all easily accessible on the rotisserie.

The rear drivers section wasn’t as straight forward due to a variety of compound curves as well as going over a floor brace, but it wasn’t too bad. Same general procedure as used for the front, but this time instead of flanging it I chose to butt-weld. That was MUCH more time consuming, and I will save that for panels that are visible in the future.
