I finally got off my dead ass and did some more work on the Sprite floorboard project today.
First I went and bought some spray on rust converter and then I cleaned all around where I cut the floor out with acetone before spraying it on all around the hole. Then I sprayed the patch piece with some Weldable Primer I ordered a couple of weeks ago.
After that I also sprayed it around the inside of the car where it is going to be welded on.
After all that, I slid the patch into place and had the Wifely Unit come out and press down on the patch piece because it’s a bit warped from the manufacturer while I slid underneath and traced the edge of the cut out so I could see where I needed to drill all the holes so I can spot weld it into place.
Then of course all the drilling etc.
Then I cut out around the rear spring perch bracket and got it final fitted and ready to weld in with one more final coat of primer on the patch.
I have a doctor’s appointment tomorrow. Depending on the weather I might actually get this welded up before Friday.
