Thanks. I have owned that 69 convt since 1983. 3 paint jobs and 3 motors. It just sat for 14 years and I just put the 427 in again and drove it this past summer. I got tired of working on cars. I am back in a big way again.

Weld, grind, weld grind repeat. I am using a mig welder with flux core because the gas part wont work. It goes pretty good. If you dont get to good metal you will find out fast as the metals disappears as you weld. Now to the floors. They went good too. Weld grind repeat. The seam sealer is the best part of this process. When nit goes on your done. Off to more rust!

Driver side floor is next. I was careful to maintain at least original 1 bolt hole for alignment on the front cab support. I got the floor painted in por 15. Next is the spare tire well. I got a real nice well from Tom Korinek, thanks and got it in.

After the tire well went in I got the lower 1/4 in on the pass side.

I had gotten a 30 ft beam from a job I was on so it was time to put it up so I could pull the body off of the chassis when the time came.

Pics of the beam I had to build some forks for my tractor so I could carry the beam.
