Just for you JD, back in the garage today. Wasn't much in the mood for fully welding the LR pan, so started work on RR. O was hoping it was better than the LR... it wasn't
Whole pan cut out, left the companion box this time. Don't know if it saved time, but it sure made working on the inner sill a pain in the azz

Heel board looks pretty good, bottom of the inner sill is punky. Time to cut some more

Did I mention someone had welded on an oversill on the Right side? It was covering up a world of rust on the outer sill and jacking point. Cut off the oversill, outer sill, jacking point, and a small piece of the inner sill

Patched inner sill at the heel board and that section in the previous pic.

Then it was time to start fitting the floor pan... finally. Decided that clecos were much easier for getting it back in the same place multiple times. This went pretty much like the other side; bend it same shape as the original, trim to fit.

Then once it fits like it should, tack and stitch.
