I am using 1/8" stock which is slightly heavier than the side to side floor brace but is the same thickness as the vertical brace that the seats mount to. I have those soaking in nox-rust and will be working on those this weekend. What I didn't take a pic of is where after I braced up the sides, I cut out rusted center. I considered scabbing in 18ga sheet but with the seat mounting to these as well, I wanted to make sure that I had some integrity with as much as I had to cut out.
