Well finally done with the floorpan, finished last night, but to dark to take picks. As you can see, the floorpan was virtually rust free! The only rust was surface, which, if I spent more time cleaning, It would all be bare metal. But I figured that the por15 would change the surface rust to non existant rust, so I didnt spend the time. I did clean off any loose surface rust with eather sand paper, or a wire wheel.
Enjoy!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wavey.gif) Attached image(s)

I love AC cars (NOT)
Floors look good. I would have went ahead and removed the tar from the tunnel and Por'd it also. The wiring harness moves out of the way very easily (off to one side). B |

It looked good, and I was running out of paint and time, so I just did a quick job of the tunnel, I wasnt going to even touch the tunnel, but I decided to anyways..
QUOTE Ouch!!! Good luck with that!! Ya, but hey what do you expect for a car that I bought with 2 parts cars for $950? I mean I got lucky on the floors.. |

My car's rust in that area is even worse http://persweb.direct.ca/aschwenk/F1040014.jpg but AFAIK it's repairable. Check out the new pics on Restoration Design's site.

Actually I think mine is worse, although I have been ripping all the bad rusted metal off, trying to get to where the rust is minimal for welding on new metal, I'll post some pics, Maybe you guys can help me figure out the best (and cheepest) way to fix this?

QUOTE(Andyrew @ Jun 19 2003, 10:15 AM) And my next project.. is that lower hole in the fender or the frame rail? can't really tell from the picture. if it is in the frame-rail, make sure to check the frame from underneath, the acid will drip into the rail and rust the bottom too. if you just close the top, the bottom rust will have plenty of time to eat on your car ... if you're not sure, cut the top open, big enough to get a good look inside ... then get a BIG piece of sheet-metal to close the top (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) (IMG:http://www.sirandy.com/pix/914/07.30.2002/IMGP0266.jpg) |

Jeff, that rust is just typical and not too bad to repair. Just cut it out and weld in new formed metal. Of course use a new engine shelf.

I've got the Engine Shelf, Inner wheelhouse (Upper Right) and Inner wheelhouse (Lower Right) on order right now from Pelican. Finally starting the resurrection/rustoration of my car. |
