With the preponderance of rust everywhere else, I would bet my next SS check the floor is not "solid". I replaced the floor on a '65 at work a few years ago that the owner thought was "solid". All the supports underneath were toast and a previous person had layed new pans on top of the rust holes in the foot wells. Yep, it felt solid, until the carpet was pulled up. We rebuilt half the frame because of rust too.

This one is a total rust bomb and parts for a '65 are not easy to find.
