RE: [diesel_mercedes] Floor Boards, Frame, and Rust on 71 220D

 

To stop floorboard rust, you cut out the floorboard back to solid metal. Then weld in a new piece of similar gauged metal.

If the frame only has surface rust it can be cleaned and rust-proofed.

Try googling for videos of these solutions on youtube.  Bill in Oregon

Subject: [diesel_mercedes] Floor Boards, Frame, and Rust on 71 220D

 

There are now holes in every floor and rust underneath.  The floors are starting to drop.  I didn't realize the problem was this extensive.

Will rustbullet or something like that stop rust on the frame?

Are there any self-adhesive floor boards out there?

Any thoughts are appreciated.
