Start of 72 ochre Blazer build thread

Sorry, I just re-read my previous post and it is unclearly written.
The two questions I was attempting to ask you guys are as follows. 1. do I have to cut my floor patch to match that seam or can I cut above that seam since the patch panel goes above it? (not sure about structural issues within that seam)
2. That area where the ends of the floor support, front pillar, and inner rocker meet together and are bolted with 4 bolts. Can any of this be welded together or should it all be bolted somehow again? (not sure how with my current situation)
Thanks in advance for any instruction on these items!
