67 Camaro floor rust repair ++

[poopahole]

Hey guys, just though I'd upload some pics of before and after repair of my floor, A guy in Sydney did it. If you like and want his details let me know. Bought the floor for $580 from Eastcoast Camaros, and the floor job cost me 3k and he did an amazing job. To avoid the body flexing, stretching etc. The floor was cut in two and fitted whilst the tunnel was still in. After welded, he cut the tunnel out.. Nice way to do it and it saved $$$ and time by not having to drop engine and exhaust etc..

Carpet off ebay as well, but I cut it even along the sills, then when I dropped the seats in, it pulled it in further, now its too short on one side.... Will sort it out tho..

Nice job, did you have to replace the chassis rails and sils ??

[AUSCAMARO]

Faaaark....Now I'm scared...

My floor pans should arrive next week and so should my rear shock mount panels...

That looks like a nasty job...

Makes a big difference though eh.

Nice bit of audio gear u got going in there to.

So you live on the north shore as well eh ? Did I see Chatswood written somewhere ? :D Nice job on the floor.

Mate it is an awesome job... This guy seriously knows what he's doing.. Just started a restoration shop in Punchbowl..

Chassis rails were in about 80% condition.. We weighed up the expense and decided to repair and strengthen what was there...

Sils were fine all round strangely enough but the ends of the sils had rusted out which he patched up as well..

Yeah mate, chatswood... So if you're this way did you manage to get to the All American Day in Castle Hill on the weekend?? Sounds a little mean but I would have been embarassed to show up in some of the stuff that was there..

Got some pics I'll upload later too..

Yeah would you believe it... I got a mate at Strathfield Car Radio and for $1500 worth of gear, I walked away with all that for only $600...

Damn they have some margin in that stereo gear..

[poopahole]

Interiors back in.. When I got this thing, I didn't realize that the interior was brand spankin new... New frames, rails, and all material... So nothing needed there but just to throw it back in there..
