I'm far from an expert but do have my cab finished ready for final filler
primer & final coat & it looks pretty good.
1: I would weld the floor openness & also seal with seam sealer after
painting ( seal all seams ) Seam sealer is like thick paint that you spread,
work into seams with an old paint brush.
2 & 3: Bondo
4 & 5: Pound out best you can & bondo - I've heard bondo to 1/4 " will
not crack.
My body supplier recommends bare metal - repair weld & remove waviness -
clean with body shop cleaner - epoxy primmer - bondo / sand with longest
sanding block as possible - clean & recoat with epoxy primmer & ready for
final sanding primmer & final paint. They say primmer other than epoxy is
porous allowing rusting under the primmer.
Hope this is a starter for you.
