I am fitting the RD front and rear floor pan pieces for replacement.
The front and rear overlap. I am assuming I should fit and trim and then butt weld them together. Would there be any reason to overlap and lap weld them? Thanks -Andrew |

I'm gonna have to do the rear floors on my car, and I agree about butt welding ... and while that is easy enough from the interior side - are you guys (without a rotisserie) MIG welding, butt welds up-side-down, from under the car? Plug welds along the edges, for that matter? I consider myself a descent MIG welder, but haven't welded much while laying on my back and a car on jack stands. Am I over thinking it?
