74 Spit Floor Pan

[Mark Iansiti <MTI1971@worldnet.att.net>]

My 74 Spitfire has some rust on the driver side floor pan (OK, so the
floor's gone), and I want to replace the road sign currently pressed into
service with the panel I bought from VB.  Once I cut the bad metal away,
will it suffice to pop rivet the new piece in place (I'm not talking
concourse[sp?], here) as far as body integrity goes, will it be safe?  I do
not have a welder, so I'm hoping the answer is - just do it.

Thanks,
Mark
