My transmission tunnel is OK, so I am thinking that I may just do left and right floor pans and hope the transmission tunnel and questionable rockers can hold it together with the door braces!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1566717030927573002.post-42889846860550998532012-10-08T08:12:18.330-07:002012-10-08T08:12:18.330-07:00Thanks!

I was also careful to support the car evenly on jack stands to ensure that there was no twist to the car while installing the floor.A.

Quick question... what happened to the diagonal x-bracing that went from each corner of the dash to the opposite side quarter panel (and crossed in the middle)? I noticed the x-brace in your earlier post on door brace fabrication, but not in these photos.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1566717030927573002.post-45674065128620444982010-11-03T09:59:19.161-07:002010-11-03T09:59:19.161-07:00Thanks!

I will definitely be making a purchase as I need to do a complete floor in my 70. Great tips!SW Pruetthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17833091216176215652noreply@blogger.com
