Crusty Rusty Leaky Squeaky 67 Step

[Vic1947]

The pinchweld flange now lays flat along the entire edge of the floor instead of kicking up on each side as it approached the curve of the tunnel. After some additional work with the dolly, the firewall lip now fits very close to the lip of the floor in the tunnel area. With all the flanges fitting nicely between the frame supports, I went ahead and stitched up the cuts with some spotwelds. When the time comes, I'll weld the full length around the tunnel and spot weld the rest of the pinchweld flanges. I should have plenty of clearance over the top of the transmission case by making the firewall fit the floor.

Before I can permanently attach the floor and firewall, I need to weld in the vent covers in the kick panels. They had been gutted previously and since I'll be running a Vintage Air setup, I'll just block them off.
