    Well a it more progress in stripping the old girl no rust in the floor pan just a bit of surface rust and in the ute part couple bubbles of rust but only two pin holes that has gone all the way through. Might be on a winning streak

    Cut it out ,rust would be right around it ,I just use doner parts cars to weld good bits back in ,tried rares floor pans in tonner but not as good as Holden pans from a wreck that I put in a ute earlier , but I got the pans with a purchase so decided to use them in tonner, but not as neat as in the ute when I used patches from the other car.
