I can't tell for sure by looking, and I am not that familiar with the box you have, but it looks like the bottom may be spot welded in. If so, you might be able to drill out the spot welds, remove the bottom, cut out a new bottom and weld in, clean it up good and paint, and you will be good to go. I would also try to repair the other one, and resell on ebay to recover your expenses, and perhaps some extra for your troubles. I had an old tool box off a Ferguson which someone had bolted on an old hay baler I had which had been junked, and for grins I cleaned it up and primed it and it brought $50 on ebay. That probably did not give me much of an hourly wage for removing it, cleaning it up and painting it, but I figured I got a little pocket money, and helped someone who needed it out. I really didn't think it would bring that much so I was happy with the outcome.
