ASmith94 Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 So I've finally decided to get serious about restoring my fathers 86 and first on the agenda is replacing the floor. I very much never want to do this again, so I'm trying to do it right the first time. I cut all the rust back and have some new floor pans to go in, but I have a question about the rockers. They're rusted from the inside near the tire. Here's a before picture and where I'm at now. Has anyone repaired this before and have any advice. Right now the plan is to get some metal flats (maybe stainless) and try to weld them in at the right angle but I'm open to different solutions. Any help would be appreciated.

Tj1 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 I started to fix my rockers till I ended up stuffing 2x6 sliders in the emptiness. I was using 18 gauge flat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
