Well they sucked, left fuzz in the POR paint and the fuzz ball was too big to get in the corners so I got a little hillbilly and taped a $2 paintbrush to a paint mixing stick and went to town. Worked out great.

Here is a teaser pic of where I left "Georgia" for the night.. No more flinstone floor One more round of welding and grinding/sanding to go!! Gotta love Taiwaneese steel, melts like butter.
Actually, I cut my floor exactly LIKE YOU. When I finally decided to take a look at your thread, I saw the pics of when you cut out the outer floor and saw that you cut around the cab supports. It is obviously the smart and only way to do it, but seeing your pics made me be a lot more careful. I could easily see myself cutting the floor, then saying "OH S**T" when the cab supports starts hanging by a steel thread.
