Re: Floor board patching

I think it relates to how much you have to replace/repair. Sometimes you only need to replace a small part of the panel and sometimes it's better to buy a designed replacement panel and replace the whole thing.

On of the cabs I have out back suffered from some real haphazard and amateur modifications (think galvanized tin and pop rivets) and will have to have most of the toe panel and firewall replaced if it ever gets used on a project.

77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.
