After I pulled the carpet away I noticed there were holes rusted through. I&#8217;m planning on building battery boxes here, and instead of ordering a new panel (only about $200) I&#8217;m going to weld in some sheet steel and cut out the rusty part:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.corbinstreehouse.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/IMG_85092.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.corbinstreehouse.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/IMG_8509-tm.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"449\" alt=\"IMG_8509.jpg\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.corbinstreehouse.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/IMG_8511.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.corbinstreehouse.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/IMG_8511-tm.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" alt=\"IMG_8511.jpg\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I originally was going to cut pieces out, but I think one big piece will be easier.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.corbinstreehouse.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/IMG_8611.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.corbinstreehouse.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/IMG_8611-tm.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" alt=\"IMG_8611.jpg\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The floor pan has a little bit of rust that I cleaned up with some sander wheels on the grinder.
