Default 68 - Floor pan and Trunk Rust Repair?

Can someone provide some basic instructions on how to cut out a rusted trunk pan and replace with one from classic industries? I'm not sure what the best technique is and I don't want to screw it up. I'm not looking for a show quality replacement, just something that will work.

Also, what is the going rate to replace an entire floor pan from front firewall to rear seat (interior is gutted)? Again, I don't need a show quality cut and replace, just something that will work for a daily driver.

I'm just curious what others have paid so I know what to expect. Also, if you know someone in northern california that is reasonable please let me know.

Thanks,
Ramien

There is really nothing basic about replacing an entire floor pan. You need to get the replacement and figure out how where to cut the old one out. You may want to do it in sections since cutting out the whole floor will require a lot of bracing so the car does not sag/twist, etc.
If you search here and other forums you can get a good idea what is involved with sheet metal replacement.
