1972 Dodge D100: Making Floor Pans out of JUNK!  

The $100 question is: What do YOU rate this level of floor pan patchwork? And is it good enough for this old truck?

Good job on the floor pans. Joe Ross painting a happy little Dodge Truck !!!

Yes def right level for this project. This is a driver/racer not a trailer queen👊🏁

the Bob Ross of rust removal technicians - happy little rust spot . . .

Floors turned out great and I can guarantee you that they will last another 40 years easily with that patch job. Great work. Glad we both got a little more time to get these old trucks ready for the Tailgate Throwdown, See you soon..

I drove semi for a Mom & Pop outfit yrs. ago. My truck was the owners sons first truck, a 1972 cabover Frieghtliner. We fixed & patched the cab, roof, sides, front & floor with pieces salvaged from a Mack, a Kenworth & and old Peterbilt. When we finished, we named her "The PeterMacfrieghtworth" !!! Moral of the story: work with what ya got.

Every time these pop up. It’s just motivation. More than you will ever understand thank you!

That permitted rust fighter is a hell of a tip. Nice job on the floor.

Great job on the floors! Every time I watch one of these videos on this truck, I always look at my truck sitting in the back. You are motivating!

Excellent work. Making progress every day. Your "lunch breaks" are long!

"Hey Joe," I "Just" love your channel. Thanks for the videos of Mopars.

Truck keeps getting better

Great rugged fix for the truck!👍

It just keeps getting better

Looking great, brother. That is some good progress on a sweet truck.

I think that's a great fix. Now to get floor pans into my F250. 😊

Trucks coming along there Joe, good job!

Looks great Joe. Thanks for the tip on the Permatex Rust Teatment.

Good video Joe , I'm doing the same thing on our Camaro today, took a brake and saw your doing the same thing, great minds think alike. lol.

Looks good Joe...can't wait for more good content and thanks 🔧👍

You floored it Joe nice job

Man of many talents

Well you sure got it patched up and looking better, wasn't going for show quality. Keep up the good work joe.

Looking good Joe !

Looks good Joe 👌

Thank you for your videos.

I’ve got to try that turbo paint can. I’ve seen several people use it and it looks like a timesaver. !!! 👍

Very awesome Joe, you make that look easy 😊

Lunch Break!!

Looks great man! It sure looks better than mine 😂😢 Keep up the good work man.

Going at it hammer and nails 😂 great job definitely gotta stop that rust, not as bad here in Australia, as long as you stay away from launching boats 😂, thanks for sharing, all the best to you and your loved ones

I'm not sure if I can do it so you may have to come over and show me. Looks good

Bought a 65 Rustang for a hundred bucks about 1981. Peel back the red carpet, and you could see the road! Someone used expanded metal to patch the holes. That Mustang was way past fixind due to rust, sold it for parts got my money back, after I had some fun doing dumb teenaged stuff with it. 😆 Your patch job looks fine to this old Minnesota road salt rust guy!

!!! Thats 99% exactly what I did a couple years back with mine. It just so happens that a hood from 80 up has the exact same curves as the seat mount spot so when I cut it up it dropped in perfect. The only thing I did differently was I tucked the edges underneath instead of on top where possible. I love the sheet metal screw method we both used here because its a simple job of popping the screw out and you have an awesome plug weld spot! I would like to add that it helps a LOT to tie both of the sub frame boxes in from under and fully weld them out. I think its absolutely hilarious that the two of us forgot to do the exact same thing on 2 separate projects... and its a big "oops" too. I'm curious of anyone can point that out?

Looks good, I really dig that truck!

Ive always used a product called One Step...same thing though and thats stuff works good.

Not sure how much the Eastwood stuff costs but for that type of work I use Roofing urethane from the hardware store it is much stronger than silicone and since it is urethane I believe you can paint over it

👍 👍 👍 👍

Perfecto! Looks good to me.

Looks about like I'd do it.

What!? No license plates? 😟

What was the stuff you had in the big spray can? Just paint?

FAINCY!!!!
