You're doing a great job with this project.
Take a magnet with a clean cloth wrapped around it; run it over the body panels to see if there are any thick spots of bondo. After seeing those rocker panels, I wouldn't trust anything.
Good luck,
Vince

Look at that Stance Its tucking 18"s. looks bad ***. its late. So I will take more pics tomarrow outside. It only needs a couple of wire's the heater hoses and two fuel lines to get it started. I hope to fire it off tomarrow. It will still be a week or three before it gos down the road. but it is so close.

Great looking car. Getting ready to do some similar work on mine.
Did the stock Fbody oil pan fit without modification?
My floor is actually in worse shape than yours and I don't have a lift. We'll see how that goes.
How is the shifter position with the bench seat?
