    Nearly 15 years after I first started this project -- the body is finally off!






    I'm using a combination of 1100lb rated saw horses, 4x4s, my bumper jack, and my engine hoist to keep the body secure. The stock shock mount area is whats sitting on the rear horse -- not the outside quarters.





    Next, it was on to cutting out the old floor. I didn't make it very far, as the blade on my sawzall was not the right kind for this sort of task and I couldn't find any of my general purpose metal blades. The pictures below show what remained of the old floor -- which wasn't much.

    Looking good SR. Glad you got the floor issue addressed. Once you get that new floor installed it'll start looking like a "new" car again!

    I think it'll be a while before it starts to look "new" -- but it's at least a good feeling to actually be replacing parts now instead of just buying new ones and waiting to do something with them. I've still got every quarter to replace on the car, so it's going to be a long, painful road to "new" status.
