Welding in floor pans

[Smilez]

Does anyone have an estimate on cost or time for having replacement floop pans welded in?

Thanks,

Jeff

If you find a reputable body shop, figure about $45/hr for the work and probably about 10-20 hours. MSA has several kits from $170 to $310.

I found a guy that does welding out of his house. 3 days and $150 later, I had a new passenger floor pan and new firewall/battery box area.

The work is not the most professional, but it's stout. All of the welds inside the car are covered, and most of them on the firewall are covered by the battery.

Thanks for the info.

KMAC, how did you go about finding that guy?

I found the guy through a friend of a friend. I'd check out the local Friday night car shows and start asking around. Ask the people who have rebuilt their cars and they will know somebody that could do the work.

You might ask a few welding shops if they know of anyone that does work on the side or on the weekends. Check with some of the car shops also.
