Fiat floor pans are in!

Well, as you can see its been a month or so since I began this little car. That's just how things go when ya do this stuff on the side. With a family and normal family stuff to do.... these projects tend to drag out longer than maybe they typically would. Love it the way it is though! Wouldn't trade em' for a damn thing!

Drivers Side Floor to be replaced.

Old style seat belt rings. (These were quite sketchy)    :)

Here is the rear floor pan on the drivers side. What you cant see here are the multiple patches made to the area in the center of the picture.

SO MANY LAYERS!!!! Terrible workmanship! It took me a bit to clear all this old stuff away carefully.
There are fuel lines, battery cables, wires, etc. running under this side. 

All cleaned up and ready to start fitting the new pan.

Here are a few more pictures of the multiple layers that made up the floor where your feet would typically rest.

4 possibly 5 layers if I remember correctly!



Again with the layers of patches!

 I am now closing in on the finish work. I plan to seam seal all the edges on the underside of the car, as well as inside, then Ill be spraying the new pan with under coating / sound deadening spray.

All in all, the job hasnt been too bad. Work went pretty quickly once I was able to get to it! :)
