OK,
So its gotten to the point of "i need to get this done now"
On my drivers side my floorboard is about to become flintstone style, i.e. there will be no floorboard there, and also on the side of my jeep under the jeep logo by the drivers side door, it is pretty rotted out.
I need to find someone or some place that can resonably weld a new floorboard and repair my rotted out panel with some new steel.
Anyone know of any good place to go that is reasonable and will do a decent job. I already have a new floorboard to be welded in, but I do not have any steel to replace the rusted out section of my body.

post up some pics, I just did floors in my buddy's wrangler. came out sweet. Located in Taunton Ma. Also what style jeep, yj, xj, mj It took me the better part of a day to plasma cut both floor pans out , fit new one's in and finish weld them. then we Herculined the whole thing. can you give up your jeep for a weekend. also if you had the interior out with the exception of the drivers seat that would speed things up.

replace entire tub...funny guy you are john, I would love to but chances that all of my body mounts are in good enough shape to remove and replace the hardware there are slim to none, should have seen the fun time we had puttin the tcase drop kit in, those bolt holes are all funky now.

Here are the pics. This is the drivers side right below the door, the rust is pretty bad as you can see, but all I really want is some sheet metal to patch up the rust, looks do not really matter as I am probably going to put a diamond plate panel over this section. These next 2 pics are taken from the inside of my drivers side door showing the damage on the inside that the rusted part below the jeep symbol has done, its pretty bad as you can see plenty of daylight, and its crumbling away. Here are the pics of the floorpan, its just the drivers side, passenger side is fine. I have already purchased a new floorpan from quadratec for it. Areas around the rusted part seem to still be in good condition, so hopefully the new floorpan should line up decently and have good metal to weld to. This last pic is taken showing the floorpan with the drivers seat being on top of the picture, as if you are looking back into the jeep. -Brian
