Ok, some progress today. It's going along quiet nicely.
This morning i cut out the majority of the R/H floorpan, same as i did yesterday with the L/H side.
With that done, i moved onto the body braces/mounts. I started with the front one first, i did them one at a time to allow me to take measurements and get them square. Also to stop the body moving around. Chevrolet were nice enough to put divots in the sill panels where the body braces are, that made it easier to get them in the right spot too.
Removed.
This is what the body and chassis were mounted to....
Once i removed the cross brace, i found some rust behind it in the inner sill panel.
So, i repaired that.
The L/H side was the same, so i fixed that aswell, but didn't take pics of it.
Then i welded the new cross brace back in place.
That's only half welded in, i'll finish welding that in when the floor pan is all in place.
So, with that done i moved on to the middle brace.
Snip, snip.
Rust in the same spot as the front one. Only on the R/H side though, the L/H side was fine.
Fixed.
All welded in.
Once those were all done, i started to fit the R/H floor pan. It needed a bit of trimming to get it to sit nicely, but it fits ok.
That's when i called it a day for today.
