1964 Crown floor pan

[Mark and Theresa Elliott <deadfishe@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for the info.  My plan for the rust was to go over it with my 
grinder to get rid of most of it, and then using POR15 to cover up the 
floor.  Is rust mort/rust encapsulator better?  I have no experience with 
these types of products.  I don't want to have to deal with this rust 
again, so I want to use something that will work (short of cutting out the 
rust and welding in new metal, since the metal is still good).

As for the bolts, I expect that at least one or two of them will break when 
I try to remove them (at least that is how my luck has gone so far).  Also 
I would guess that they shouldn't be too expensive, and several dollars is 
far less expensive then spending the time trying to clean up the current ones.
