Hi Guy's
Still working on the stang, Got both quarter panels wheel wells trunk rear crossmember all done. Onto the floors, It already had the little patch floors welded in in the past and it looks pretty sad from below, plus everything is bronzed in and with huge gaps between welds.
Being in canada I didnt want to pay over 1000$ for a full floor, I see they are now made for our cars from dynacorn I think? seen it somewhere, by the time I pay 20% exchange truck freight duty etc Id be way over 1000$ A local supplier of sheet metal only offered the 2 full length sides until I bugged and bugged the to check for a full floor and to my suprise they said they showed one available that only required some modification to the floor ribbing being in a different location. I got it for 400$ so I dont mind a little modification. I hace a miller 211 mig and a xtreme plasma and consider myself a amateur welder fab guy, .
Anyone ever put in a 64-70 floor in a 71-73? I also will be replacing my front frame rails and tranny brace as they have been butchered up over the years. I'll post some progress pics, any suggestions welcome. Front frame rail under floor pictures where it attached to the front frame would be nice, im not sure how it attaches to the front torque box
I'll take some more pictures of the old floor soon.
