It had 2 rear floor pans rotted out where a passenger would put their feet. We had 5 gal pails of this tree sealing goop. if you nicked a tree with a mower it would seal the wound. looked like tar. I used 2 pail lids to cover up the holes and sealed the lids in with the tree goop! Boy, THAT brings me back! First car. '53 Buick Special (straight eight). Bad floors. Sheet metal scraps from a local shop and lots of roof cement! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
