Re: "Smaller" floor pan panels

I am an orrieg agreebot today. I bought halves and only needed patches, ended up replacing the halves. its easier than you think. I bought a spot weld cutter but didnt even need it, the floors just popped off the spot welds with a screwdriver and I ground the spot welds flat again. the floor is supported completely with the sheet removed (dont jump on it or rock it around though).

if I would have tried to patch what was there, I was grinding back to get to shiny metal and it just stayed brown. patching the whole floor was the best idea and didnt really take as much time as patching in a bunch of spots.
