T-Cap and Floor pan replacement...

[mapandjlp]

Need some quick opinions, Guys.  What do you think it should cost me to have a driver's floor pan installed and a passenger side T-Cap replaced on my '70 Challenger?

Guess I don't know body jargon, what's a T-Cap?

Yeah, I had to look that one up too.  It's the point where the front frame rail meets the torsion bar crossmember.  It's sorta shaped like a " T ".

Oh, OK. Makes sense. Thanks. Sorry I can't give you any $ estimate, I did my panel replacement at home and just farmed out the paint so I have no idea how much it would cost.

As usual, its difficult to guess whats needed when it comes to replacing the floor. These are my typical questions for blind quotes.
Has it been fixed before? Is the surrounding areas in excellent shape? Is the rest of the frame ok? Is it the short front floor, or the long front floor? What are the labor rates in your area. Are the body guys fabricators with experience doing this stuff?

If it was in my shop, and I was putting in one of our T-caps, and a simple front floor? I would guess your looking at 8-10 hours labor, plus shop supplies, so your in the $6-900 range here.

Thanks for the guess.  I know it's tough to figure without actually seeing the project.  About the car though, it's really odd just how solid everything else is.  The T-cap is rusted between the union and the rocker but the crossmember and the front rail are mint.  The driver's floorpan is rotted under the feet but the other floorpans are nice.  It's weird...
