Thank You Taiwan

I received these new patch panels yesterday...included in the shipment were the right floor pans as well. Don't get me wrong, they look great and I look forward to replacing the rusted out areas you see below. But I'm not sure what Wally will have to say about these new Taiwanese steel panels. Socs guardian angel may take issue with their point of origin.
Wally, if you're out there, remember they wil be covered up by floor mats!












This is the cancer encrusted driver's side floor pan. You can see the floor support brace just above the master cylinder and the floor straight through! Seeing this area exposed explains the slight tilt that Socs had. The passenger side is in the same sad shape. If I can get another 50 years out of the new pans, we'll be ok!













This is the left cab corner. Advanced Design trucks are notorious for rusting in these areas.
