Location: Bruceville,Texas		I was able to find a decent reproduction trunk floor for 57-59 FL cars on ebay. The seller (classicparts4u) states its for 57-59 Chrysler, Dodge and Desoto. It doesn't have the provision for the spare tire hook, so its not correst for Plymouth. I didn't need to replace my entire floor and was able to use 2/3 of it to repair my 58 Fury. It isn't 100% perfect, but for $139, it'll do.

Location: Bruceville,Texas		I dressed the welds, applied epoxy sealer, seam sealer and factory type undercoating. This is the completed repair. I think it turned out O.K.

OR is that the kind of undercoat that dries to a none sticky surface. POR - 15 or Rust Encapsalator
might have been a better choice.

GOOD LUCK

Location: Bruceville,Texas		Its factory type asphalt undercoating. It's pretty close to the original stuff just not applied as sloppy or as thick.
