Only had a couple of hours to get anything done on the truck this weekend, so other than pulling the radiator, I decded to take out the old rubber floor mat and get ready to put the 40/20/40 seats in I acquired.

Not a body guy, so I don't know what needs to be done to repair those sections. Weld in new rocker panels? Patch pieces?

Went on to discover a few more holes under the rubber mat.

I would like to take care of the floors issues before putting the seats in, but I need to haul a few things before the end of the week, so I'll be putting in the seats and pulling them back out later to address the ventilation issues...if the radiator can be salvaged.
