Re: floor pan patches--butt or lap weld

"I would butt weld it. Once you start fitting the metal you will find it is not that hard to line up."

Many years ago when I restored my wife's 69 Impala convertible, I needed to replace 3 out of the 4 floor pan sections. My brother-in-law butt welded them in in my garage using a 110V MIG welder and they turned out great.
