Spent $12 on a sheet of 16 gauge steel. Will cut and pound it into a
shape and then weld it to the floor. Not expecting miracles, but will
not be a show car

w115 rusty trunk repair the right way is a nightmare. I'm still
working on my trunk repair now for 3-4 months. Only several hours per
week and being a perfectionist. I left some posts on my progress
several months ago. Well anyway I purchased the trunck floor new for
$180 plus $70 for shipping from K&K. Drilling out the hundredes of
spot welds is no fun. Fuel tank willa lso have to come off. Left
side of trunk floor doesn't appear to be available so I am fabricating
this. Need a bead roller. Waiting for custom die to be made to
duplicate bead exactly.
