Not sure if other people are having rust problems in this area but it might help to see how I approached it. When I bought the car it had hotchkis subframe connectors welded in. I believe this contributed to the rust due to the sloppy installation by the previous owner.

 

You did a great job Thats how I'm going to be patching up the pass side of the interior for my 82.

 

jeze nice fix. i'm impressed.

 

Thanks for the compliments, It was my first shot at this sort of repair. I would reccomend anyone who is serious about trying to tackle this sort of thing to do some research on hammer forming. I made all of the patch panels using very simple hammer forms. A tabletop beltsander and a angle grinder are also invaluable tools. I chose to butt weld and grind whenever possible which meant extra time on the sander and grinder but I think the results are worth it.

 

It's nice to see that some people still take the time to do it right.
