Buy a New Mexico car. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.gif



Even my Virginia TII is surprisingly rust-free. I dunno. If it's just a few spots, you could cut it out and weld in some new metal, but if it's extensive, I'd be looking for another car.



Can you even get floorboards for these cars? https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683561.gif

Its not hard to replace the floorpan and rockers if you have access to a sheet metal brake and bead roller
