Floorboards

I started replacing the Drivers side rocker, but most of the metal behind it all the way into the floorboards was toast. One of the Previous owners of this tub had done a "repair" by tacking in new floor boards over the old rotted out ones. First step was to remove the repair and see what we've got.

The scene under there was not a good one. Pretty much all of the metal other than the support pieces was completely rusted out, and the rust went up the sides of the tub under the door sill and up panel behind the floor pan. I replaced all of this with 11 gauge sheet metal, so it should be there to stay. Here's the completed repair.Also, there was a rusted out part of the passenger side floorboard right in front of the gas tank strap mount. I replaced that with the 11ga also. Here's that replacement.The only remaining rust repair on the tub is the Drivers side rocker, the rear sill, and the rear quarter panels. I haven't gotten the new quarter panels yet in, so I'll finish this all up when they get in. Then I can get to the sanding, bodywork, and paint.
