    Need some help here.

    Ok, before anyone says it..... I am not going to part this car out, just want to know if anyone knows of a place where I can get a new/used (not rusted) floor, or if anyone has a parts car that they wanna cut the floor out of.





    Thanks,
    Tony

      Have you tried some of the yards in Houston? I've seen quite a few non rusted floors in yards up here in Dallas.

          Was thinkin about doin this actually...... sans the designs thing.

          Does anyone know if there are spots that are double layer, or is it all just a single formed panel?

            By the dead pedal on my car there was two layers, but all you have to do is grind down and cut to fresh metal, cut some templates, and weld the new stuff in, i used an epoxy sealer, then tar to make sure no salt would get back in

              Thanks for the info chefd.... don't have to worry about salt down here in Houston, but will prob have the car striped and have rhino liner or some line-x sprayed on the underbody.
