Haha I'm sure they do. It will make this job easier, that's for sure. First time I've used one in years, on my first pan. This is fun!
Little more pan work today.
Random ****.
More.

Pan is out except for the strip along the firewall. Lots of prep work next too.
Last of the pan separated from the firewall. Encouraged by the lack of serious rust I'm seeing.
Test fit the AMD pan.

Been there with the pan, done that, got the T shirt. Will be doing that again.
Wow! I'd use road signs, haha.
It's kinda fun ain't it? Nobody bothers you when you are running the air chisel...............

Air operated cut off wheel, and rotabroaches for spotwelds are my thing. Spark up the cutoff wheel, watch everybody run lol.
Not much progress on the car. Took some time off to do an addition and fix a rotten tool shed floor.
Spoiled rotten.

Been hung up working on the shop, etc. Finally some progress on the car!

Didn't see this one before--watching now--lots of good visual cues and I'll be making similar repairs in the trunk on my '72 Scamp. I am of similar mind with your methodology...not a concourse, so patch panels will play a part in addition to standard replacement panels and I'm not super concered about how the trunk floor or floor pans look as long as they're in there, secure, and don't leak.
I do need to replace my right side front floorpan again...the first time I did it, it was FAR from correctly done due to a lack of proper tools. Now I have a shop, a 60 gal compressor, a 140A MIG welder, and more hand/power tools...(Eastwood will probably get more of my money for fab tools).
I'm glad you took a pic of your wheels with the spacer-I'm likely to go the same route because I have an extra set of Bullitt wheels from all my Mustang bits and pieces.

Looks like you need a set of bumperettes to cover the slots outboard of the license plate notch.

Thanks!
Thanks, I'm having a ball! Have you had any luck finding center caps for those bullitt wheels? I have found very few that will work on the front...............
Eventually. Maybe. IDK. It's functional right now. LOL............

No, I haven't, but I haven't put much effort into looking yet as I'm kinda out of country at the moment and I need to do the BBP swap first, but I have friends with access to lots of cool machinery, so I might ask a favor for some custom made ones.
