I've taken the step and started on the red car. I'll try to consolidate several other posts into this one. I want to try some things on the project, like doing my own panel replacement, and some body work.
The engine is out and will be on its way to the machine shop this week. It was previously rebuilt around 1985 and was taken out .030 at that time. I wanted to start with the floors because, I've never replaced floors before, in fact I've never welded before but I did watch the Eastwood tutorial. I thought I may as well try it, if its beyond my capability's I'd have it done however, the cost of having them done would come out of some other part of the resto.
So gentleman, my first floor pan replacement.
