The car just came back from the bodyshop to replace the floor underneath the inner firewall and the front trunk floor. The stuff from Restoration Design is great.
But behind the passenger seat there's still a gap between the inner firewall and the floor. Is it necessary to weld this for the stiffness of the car or can I just use some epoxy to close the gap? ![]() |

What kind of shop would replace the floor but not fix that part? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Either way, that *is* structural and needs to be fixed. And no, epoxy or bondo is not a fix. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) |
