Re: Newbie with a 65 Chevy
Thanks. I sent that one from the phone and I guess I had it turned when I posted it. I still have not figured out how to edit pic after I post.

Re: Newbie with a 65 Chevy
Removed rocker on passenger side. PO had put small patches in the floor corners to coverup a little rust. Decided to replace floor, inner and outer rockers. I had them already.

Re: Newbie with a 65 Chevy
Welded up floor pan today after mocking up rocker and door to make sure it was all lined up. Everything fit very well.

Re: Newbie with a 65 Chevy
Looking good! I have the same EFI tank coming in next week. Glad to see it mounts nicely. Any issues with it, or the biggest thing to do is remove/relocate that thin crossmember?
