rocker repair question.

I need to repair the channel showed in the picture, I borrowed the pic from someone on the site, thank you.

I have small rust holes in the bottom of the channel itself.

Re: rocker repair question.

How much of that in length do you need I have a 30" brake so I can bend you one from 20 gage sheetmetal if you pay the shipping to get it mailed to you.

Re: rocker repair question.

pretty much the whole length.... but its not perfectly square is it? it looks like its more of a rounded bend?

Re: rocker repair question.

If I want to do a slightly radiused bend I just do it in a couple of steps instead of breaking a crisp line. I have my 69 sitting with the floors exposed so I can copy the part pretty easy probably.

Re: rocker repair question.

that would be awesome if you could. I would gladly pay for shipping and the steel itself.... especially if youve got a truck there to copy it from.

Re: rocker repair question.

I wonder if it would be easiest to cut it out at the bend, or an inch or so into the flat part of the floor itself?

No sweat let me give it a shot. I'm busy for a couple of days but I'll try to knock one out and send you a picture. How far into the floorboard do you need it to go?
