[DeTomaso] Floor Pans

John,

My guess is that it might have started its life as 20ish gauge.

I was amazed at how much corrosion I found UNDER the factory undercoating which had worked its way almost through the metal.

I have no doubt that some cars must have had surface rust on the undersides before the undercoating was sprayed on.

I'm currently replacing my pans with 18 gauge.

Thanks,
