the car now resides in the UK and i'm the third UK owner. that above linked advert shows floor sections recently replaced.
took the interior out to sort a couple minor of issues which has turned to a massive weldathon.

you are not supposed to be able pop a welded floor out with a screw driver. Who ever 'welded' these floors in should be really embarrassed and not allowed near a welder ever again. no naming names so please no digging and let them be embarrassed in private. it took longer to clean the sealer off hiding the poor repair than removing the poor repair itself.
but it gets worse.

yep that is a 15 inch grinder cut in the sill (rocker) panel not repaired before the floor was put back over it. There are other cuts in the torque reaction cross member which require welding before the floors get put back in properly as well as a really hacked floor edges that need tidying.
I'm going to put extra strength in the chassis just to make sure so part way through fabricating frame connectors.
