    ...and while I'm giving out salutations for Christmas and new Year I might as well wish you "Happy Birthday" as well!

    Have a good one mate!

    Thank You Sir! I did have a good day!
    I made a plan on how to attack these repairs and wanted a second opinion. I called a friend of mine to come look at the floors to get his input. He agreed with my thoughts so we started cutting... This is where we ended up.

    I ordered the two short braces and a couple of outer rockers tonight. I will save the seat braces and start rebuilding the inner rockers tomorrow.
    All of the ugly will get trimmed off the seat platform. The new pans will get trimmed to that edge and plug welded on top of what's left.
