"Check out the older floor patch panel. They don't make panels like that any more...."

Way-long ago, I swapped - inherited a '53 Stude Loewy coupe which had been used as a a street / strip terror. When I started cleaning it up, I found that the floor rot typical of all those Studes had been patched with pieces of Folgers & Maxwell House coffee cans, slathered-up real good with roofing tar.

I never finished the car, because a guy came along who wanted it way more than I did.
