Floor pan repairs

                          I got a car rotisserie which will help with the work underneath the car, this I had to paint up and I did this at the same time as the motor.

                                    

Makes it real easy to remove all the front suspension when the car is on its side like this, really handy this rotisserie.

Really good steel under all this tar and old paint this body has been well preserved over the years.

With all the suspension removed and any brake and fuel lines its time to cut out the bits of rusty floor pan and replace with new steel.

Front floor rust not much for one of these cars seen alot worse.
Front floors and rear floors were only mildly rusted on opposite sides;  right hand front and left hand rear for some reason

Rusty rear scetion.

Doesn't look like much here but once you get into it you need to get back to the good metal but I still want to try and retain as much of the orginal steal as possible.

Cut section out, may ended up cutting more as it will be easier to weld in the bigger section and there was a few small holes that would have caused problems while welding.

Here is the new section ready to be welded in.

                          See view from underneath left rear floor new section to be welded in.

Right hand rear floor is great.

Drivers side floor as well.

Great underbody once the old paint is all removed it will clean up well, just a few floor repairs

 Note date stamps on Original sills, these are good and solid and will not need replacing.

Rear floor section welded in now.

And front section as well. In the following weeks i'm going to start stripping cleaning up all the chassis components then paint and underseal. Depends on the weather as it gets really cold in the garage at night.
