new floor

[slowpoke]

So when I did my heater core I pulled back the carpet to reveal a hole in my drivers side floor. I don't believe in scrapping a numbered car or parting it out, I'd rather fix it. Anyone on here done this before? Easy task? I'm going to do it regardless but would like to get some ideas from fellow gvr4 guys.

I am getting ready to scrap a shell. I would gladly cut you out a patch panel if you want.

How big? Price? Shipping costs?

 

[LIV4PSI]

As big as you need. I would basically only want shipping costs. I would think they would be reasonable since its pretty thin metal. Shipping all depends on how big of a piece you need.

Ya slowpoke when you post a pic of the floor it will
Help him decide how big of peice to cut out.

Just a cell phone picture, about 4 inches each way but the underneath looks like i'll need to cut more out.

Could be the small pic, but that doesn't look like a hole in the floor. It looks like a hole in the undercoating and just some surface rust on the metal. Either way, I'll grab some pics of mine today. A section that small won't be more than $10 to ship.

Its definently a hole just a crappy cell phone pic. i want a bigger piece though because its starting to flake down from there to.

Look over the rest of the car very well....Cars generally don't rust out in just one spot!

ive looked over the best i could this car sat for a LONG time without being moved, passenger side floor looks in ok condition. As for the drivers side thats a different story.

 

[LIV4PSI]

Sorry I'm slacking on getting you a pic. Mine is starting to rust on the driver side but not on the passenger side. But its just surface rust, its still good metal. But that car has rusted roof, rockers, etc, so I agree with pulling the moldings and checking everywhere else for rust as well.

Thats fine i can die grind it down a little bit and clean it up at least before welding it.
