Default Procedure for taking out rusted floorpans on a 911

I am no body repair person.


Are their any aftermarket repo floor pans available, for an early 911 ?


If not, do you cut out the originals from a good donor car, and reweld them into your project ???


What is the best procedure, to solve the problem ?


THANKS
Ralph

I used MANY pieces from Restoration Design and found all of them to be great quality and fit.

I'd go for those new replacements, don't mess with trying anything from a salvage yard.

Oh, the next step in the procedure for me, would be to take it to my body guy!! I'm scared to death of body work. Maybe one of these days, I'll take on a project and do some learning, but for now, I'll just stick to mechanical work in the DIY dept.
