repairing rust with fiberglass - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I just picked up a 1960 panel truck and love the thing to death already, but its got some rust issues. I dont' have a welder or know how to weld, so I was wondering if I could fix the holes in the floor with some fiberglass cloth or do I need to buy the patch panels and do it "right" I have a good amount of experience with fiberglass repair on boats already. The truck is pretty beat up and has lots of bondo, that is the only reason why I would consider fixing it with fiberglass. Do you think would that be a good option?
