Wow, I like the floorboards and rivets much better than the expanding foam, that stuff'll soak up water like a sponge, causing rust around the foam chunk and eventually your floor falling out. I have a Scout - trust me, it sucks when that happens! If the holes are small, there's nothing wrong with fiberglass cloth and resin. Tape a section of cardboard under the floor to keep the glass from sagging, and you'll be good to go. Remember though, resin has a short shelf life and the stuff at Walmart or an autoparts store will peel and lift - stop by an automotive paint store, they should have fresh. :)
