Floor pan help
Hey Fellas,
I had my car up on a lift the other day, and realized that my passenger floor has a rather large hole in it. The hole is where the back seat floor is. The rust has crept up towards the frame too. Is it possible to replace half a floor pan? If so, can this be done in a driveway by a novice, or is this a body shop project? Does anyone have any idea what the cost would be for something like this? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks everyone.

You can do this 2 ways after you cut out the bad metal
1) Riviet a new piece in and use seam sealer to insulate it
2) Have the new piece welded in by someone or if you have a welder do it yourself though it would be hard without a lift.
Too bad you have a hole if you didn't you could use that POR 15
(paint over rust)
