took me about 3 days to do the floors. took the tar mat things out with heat gun, took all the seam sealer out with heatgun, wirebruched the both floor pans, then put rust stopper on them, the primed them. right now, im working on the drivers side motor compartment

and i have wirebrushed and primed both trunks.

need to take the gas tanbk out and all the fuel lines so that i can weld up under the floor boards a mit, then have to make the motor run (details.) and paint it.


im still debating what color im going to paint it, but right now im leaning twards the stock green its already painted.
