No problem John.
Part of the reason for this thread is to help others tackle a tough situation like repairing bad rust. (Is there such a thing as good rust) [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/crazy.gif[/img]
I will ask Eric exactly when he wants the car up on the rotisserie again, but I thought he had told me it would be after the lower sections were replaced. I'll get back on this.

Yeah, he'd be over here at the Ponderosa, as he liked to call my place, setting up the next car deal.
He definitely is around here, as I think about him and the fun he was/is.

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: john s</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Thanks Rick, I'm kinda at the point you are with my project, but I'm leery of putting it back on the rotisserie with the quarters off. Are you planning to add bracing? I hope I'm not derailing your thread and apologize if I am.
John.
</div></div>

We got the floor all welded in now. Man there is a lot of it that needed to be done. Took all day.
No picture updates as it all looks pretty much the same, but now the car is solid on the bottom.

Next step, to move the rear jack stands forward to just in front of where the rear axle would sit.
Then we will remove the trunk floor and replace.
After that it will go on a rotisserie for the quarter panels, one side then the other, not taking both off at the same time.
Looking forward to next Saturday. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]
