This may be stupid question,but i would rather find out now then later..When you patch holes in the floor , do lay the patch on the interior side of the floor or undercarriage. I was going to lay the patch on the interior side and fill the bottom with a filler ,to create a smooth surface?

I would lay it on the inside and weld into place from both sides. I don't know if bondo will stay if there is any flexing in the area. I would treat it with a rust preventer and undercoating.

Welding would be the preferred method, but if it isn't an option you may consider gluing a replacement pan in. It's very easy. There are many threads on the board to find out more.....

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
