Was bored today so took a screwdriver to the rusty parts on the nova to see how bad it was.To my horror poked straight though the boot floor in several places.:cry:
I was just wondering if you can buy a completed new boot floor or is it a case of welding and patching it up.Also at the same time has anybody completly removed the spare wheel well.



Cheers.

Dont think you can get a replacement panel, just get the welder out and patch it up.

You can remove the wheel well, personally i wouldn't bother.

Its a case of patching the old girl I'm afraid - There is no point in taking out the wheel well unless its really rotten, even then it would be to replace it - unless u dont mind walking home for the spare lol.
Only reason some people cut the wheel well is for a larger/twin exhaust system, other than that there are no other advantages.

you can buy them, but you have to cut out the whole boot floor to the back seats

Its probably not worth the effort unless you are removing it for a specific reason.
