Gentlemen,
I've begun replacing sheet metal and wanted to get yalls opinion on some things that I should or should not be doing. I've decided to start on my passenger side with the floor pans. I ordered my floor pans from the Graveyard. For reference to anyone who wants to order from them it was a good experience. Floor pans arrived quickly shipping was affordable and packaging was good. Moving on. One of the primary threads I am following is one that was posted by jonmelton in 2014. I plan to pretty much mirroring his process on my own. So here are the details and some questions. The floor pans I am using are 18 gauge, I plan on screwing them down just as done in the before mentioned thread and then going back and plug welding each hole. I will be using a millermatic 140 auto set gasless with .30 welding wire and have zero experience with welding. Here are the questions. Do you see anything wrong that I have done in the photos? What weld through primer do yall recommend, as well as seam sealer? I have been able to find POR-15 in a rubberized undercoating aerosol can on Amazon which runs for about 20 bucks a can. Has anyone had any experience with this product? Same thing with the POR-15 49013 patch/seam sealer. Would this be a good product to use for my seam sealer? Lastly Take a look at the kick panel. in the lower right corner that hole runs through three pieces the rocker, the kick panel, and the post. With me being noob to this and having no experience with welding, how would you best tackle that and if its a matter of replacing all the pieces which piece should I start with first?
