Sorry bout yur luck zero psi. There is nothing worse than a rotted out floor. I had a 68 Ford Ranchero with a brand new 390, C-6 auto, and completely rebuilt front clip, suspension and all. But if I looked behind my drivers seat I could see half the rear axle leaf spring through the 1 x 1 foot hole in the floorpan. Breaks the heart don't it?

yeah it wa pretty scary when i pulled up the carpet. i was like "i been driving it like this?!?" the rear floor and support/tailgate mount was completly gone. behind the front seats were gone, the drivers seat had stress cracks and was sagging to the frame, and in front of the pass seat was a 1 foot circle gone. all i can say now is its a lot quieter inside now and the tailgate opens and closes eaisly now. im glad thats over. moving on...
