Well, the hole itself was repaired, but I was just able to excavate as seen below. Surrounding area is ice pick proof. What are the best "fixes" to be done while keeping the car together? It does not extend into the interior either and the side runners are very solid (had been replaced too).

Guess you guys were right. The seats were out so I stepped in to work on the dash and my foot went right through the floor. The entire floor pan caved in leaving a huge hole and the rest of the floor in between the tunnel and the long depressed a good 4-5" ! Now the doors won't even open.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif) You didn't fool me for a second. What you described here was totally out of line with what I believe the car's condition is. The pics I posted earlier are of a beautiful car, owned by a forum member. The care is worth a lot of money, even more since the metal repairs were made. Yours is nice, but not that special - since more extensive repairs were already required more than 20 years ago, and the PO didn't ensure that the highest quality work was done. As soon as you made your post about the wheel spacers I knew what we were in for. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) |

Maybe you're not a "Super Genius". The spacers were done about three months ago when an eBay dealer took the 4 lug chrome reversed wheels off after buying the car strictly to resell, did the 5 lug conversion, and threw on those mismatched spacers to give the car its stance and clearance on a budget. The other work you're referring to was done in 1989.
"As soon as you made your post about the wheel spacers. I knew what we were in for" makes absolutely no sense at all. Still love you though. Now I'm going to cry myself to sleep being jealous of that former members car that is worth a lot of money. I want a valuable car!!!

No...you have a car that could be valuable one day. I have an ex wife like that. I got rid of her, like you're doing with the car.
