I want to fix the two holes that were repaired with rivets and a piece of metal in my frunks floor. I would like to find some one that would be willing to sell me just the two sections I need, rather than spend 300 on restoration designs repair piece.

Any one have the pieces I need… (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) ?

Don't know your welding skills but will comment that you really should find a whole used floor, stitching pieces just makes it harder due the ribs and contours of this panel,mine was cut for oil cooler and is a bit of a mess that is fixable ,cheers.

The Restoration Design floor repair is very nice. You should spend the money and save on the labor trying to scab small pieces into the floor.

You’ll do the same amount of welding and get a much cleaner install by replacing the entire panel. And you don’t have to battle the many contours of the middle of that panel by attempting to patch it.

Another + for replacing the floor as a larger piece. It won't cost anymore money and will look much better.
