Morning and welcome. You'll see in some of the threads, pictures and words for replacing the floor in these trucks. It'll be sheet metal and some fabrication rather than buying replacement panels. Elty and Banshee would be a good place to start thread reading.
Also they are a good place for part finding as they break trucks that are too far gone to repair.

Morning and welcome aboard.

Unfortunately I doubt you’ll be able to buy floor panels for Terranos.

It’s a common repair and can simply be cut out the rotten areas and fabricate sheet metal to fit the cut outs and weld in. A member called elty on here actually cut out his boot floor and wheel arches and fabricated whole new floor and arches but think he had access to metal working machinery to bend the large sheets to fit the floor.

The reality is unless you can weld and fabricate yourself then a garage if you can get them to do that kind of work will charge both arms and both legs for the work. Sorry if that is not what you were wanting to hear. The good news is on e it is repaired correctly it’ll last for years and carry on being the truck you love.

High and welcome, as been said panels are not available, fabricate your own is the way forward, but where in Kent are you? Rick

Welcome Tina

As said Elty did some extensive repair work to his truck as he started chasing the rust and it just didn't end!!!! Given the opportunity again I'm sure he would have just torched it

I've provided a link to his project thread with pics of all his work, you'll want to start from post #29 Although, you wont be able to see the thread just yet until you become a full member.

Yep!!!

A few years ago, Photobucket decided to change it's terms of service and held everyone's embedded photos hostage, they changed their T&C's and decided that anyone wanting to use the service to embed their photos in Forums and Blogs etc must join the P500 plan which was a bargain at $399 a year

I made a desperate attempt during the transition to grab everyone's pictures as if you were clever with the URL's then you could still grab High Res copies of the pictures for a limited time. I went through and downloaded and re-hosted as many pictures as I could via IMGBB but it was very tedious and tiring and I gave up after a the first couple of thousand

Some threads still need to be sorted out but I'm going to leave that to the respective owners as it's mindnumbing!!!!!
