Any 
experience with the pre-formed panels from Clarks? I have never 
welded in floor pans before and dont know how to go about cutting 
out the old floors, esp at the attachment to the frame rails at the 
front and rear. Also, I have rust out at the dog leg on the 
rear frame rail
Hey Keith,

I'm sure you'll get lots of positive responses on the replacement panels for 
Lon or Clark's. I've used several and they were perfect fits. The hardest 
thing was cutting the spot welds from the subframe, but that wasn't even that 
hard. When I replaced my panels, I 'glued' them in with Fusor adhesive. It's like 
a 2 part epoxy and real easy to work with.

Sorry, but I can't get you an employee discount for your '67 Skyhawk <G>. 
Please don't blame me for any performance issues with your plane, I wasn't here 
then and haven't done 'bugsmashers' for about 5 years.
