Here’s a Formula Ford chassis I had in recently.  It’s had a hard racing life from the look of it!

I made up a new floor section from 1″ square tube.

Old floor section cut out and new section clamped in, then brazed together as per the original.

New floor panel welded on and to the belt mounts. Mountings for the side mounted coolant radiators added too.

All ready for the powder coaters.
