Help Needed

I just became an owner of the 1992 Chevy Camaro, was pulling carpet to change out and came upon this (pics). Looking for any kind of help. Thanks.

Re: Help Needed

Well u could have the floorboards replaced like I did or grind all of the rust out or grind as much as u can out and then coat it with that stop rust preventive that u can buy at ur local parts store then paint over that with rustoleum paint for extra protection. Hope this helps.

Re: Help Needed

POR-15 would kill the rot.

Re: Help Needed

And it doesn't look like the floorboard as much as just the supports for the seat. I'd wire brush it, hose it with POR-15, and spend my time finding out where the water came from to stop it.

Re: Help Needed

If the metal isn't rotted through or too thin, I would clean it with a wire brush and hit it with Rust Bullet. That stuff is dynamite.
