Got the seat riser patch fitted and welded in. Still working on grinding the welds. The bottom driver's side flange and most of the riser below the bottom bead rusted away. I bent a piece of sheetmetal and stretched the flange to fit the curve. Worked out pretty well, I think. Also completed welding the floor patch and started grinding the welds. This doesn't have to look that nice as it'll be covered by undercoating eventually. Not too worried about appearance of the part underneath the seat.
First pic is the riser patch fitted, Second is welded in, and third is the floor panel.

If you're smart enough to take it apart, you darn well better be smart enough to put it back together.
