How much do you think it would cost to get the whole underbody repaired for rust?

Where in Mass. are you?

Can you be more specific about what repairs you mean? Do you just mean installing full floorpans for both sides?

rjpbboi

yeah, the whole underbody, the floorpans under the seats. I live in Littleton Mass, its in the center near Acton, Concord, Westford, Groton... bout an hour and a half from you.

yearone and a few other places sells floor pans if they are rotted if its not rotted too bad you can grind and use por 15, some one told me theres a place in RI that carries it cheaper than the website (maybe direct or something) if i find out i will let you know

rjpbboi

any idea how I should go about fixing this, I'm gonna do it in steps...

Spare tire well?

Pic blurriness makes me want to hurl lol

I would cut out all the rust until u get to clean solid metal.

than I would either:

Get a good section from the yard if you can find it

replacement panel

or fashion a new spare tire well

Weld it in

coat all the seams

than use something like por 15 to seal it off.

If u have any other major spots, make sure the car is worth saving without spending $1000's on it. Besides if you have other place to work on, you could cut them all at ince and/or shape new metal all at once to help speed things up a little on repairs.

If at all possible and you have good engine, interior etc come south and get one with a tired engine for about what you can do repairs for. With that much rust it is probably everywhere. I pondered rust repair once and decided to eat the loss and sold the car. Of course when I sold it the sand blaster and I had exposed all the problems.
