If the running gear is bolsters and cross members at each end, remove them and lift the boxes off the running gear. cut out the bad metal (Hand plasma torch is the real deal) and either reweld in 12gauge sheet metal. or remake with tongue and groove flooring. Treat the flooring to prevent rot, or keep them dry. Metal is a better solution. Jim

I redid the floor on one a year ago. It was a wood floor though. I just used treated 2x6s from Home Depot.

There may be good reasons for not using Arsnic treated wood for comsumable applications. Jim

Any pictures of the wagons you can post?

Nothing gets consumed from my flair wagon floor by anyone or anything. I use mine around my pumpkin stand in the fall more for decoration than anything.

Those bolts are probably might rusty and you might have to split the nuts on some of them if you don't want to use something with a flame around that wood to get them off. Does it have a 3" tongue and groove floor? If it does and you want to replace it with an original type floor a lot of old run down houses have it in the floors. Closet floors are the best if you can get long enough boards out of them. I don't know if lumber yards sell it anymore or not. Jim
