New floor pans in

Ohsplat · May 6th, 2011, 12:10 AM

Entire pan

Close up of beads, and seal.

Welded on a new strut tower

someone jacked car up under rear seat, jack went thru floor. Welded it shut.

Seat bolt that broke.

Ohsplat · May 6th, 2011, 12:18 AM

What fun is that? lol.. Find me a original 83 gt for 1500. I think at the end of the floor pan I started to get used to the welder.

Was hard enough as it was. I used the cheap flux wire that came with the welder, now that I am used to it i can lay a bead much better.

ryanw · May 6th, 2011, 12:31 AM

your going to grind down all you welds and remove all that rust....Right ?

Ohsplat · May 6th, 2011, 12:34 AM

Grind them down, use joint sealer, primer, roll on bed liner. undercoat bottom. Car must have been in a pretty back crash at one time, so i welded on all new parts on the driver side. Fender skirts, shock tower, supports.

I have a feeling you aren't gonna lay shit with that welder! Don't worry about a helmet either...shits overrated

93hatch · May 6th, 2011, 12:37 AM

squint! why do you think asians dont weld them? Ive never even seen a nicer 83

Digsj7 · May 6th, 2011, 12:37 AM

Should have just bought my "almost" rust free coupe

Digsj7 · May 6th, 2011, 12:38 AM

I always think I'm gonna burn my contacts to my eyes!

Sarcasm? lol.. well i could spend a few k on one already done but I like to do the work, learn how to do the work, and feel I actually restored something you dont see as many of. Not many 4 eyes on the road these days and the ones I have seen were 4 or 6 bangers.

Digsj7 · May 6th, 2011, 12:46 AM

Just giving you shit man.

Keep it up and next time you decide to "lay a bead"...practice on some scrap first.

Ohsplat · May 6th, 2011, 01:00 AM

Yeah I should have, but i knew I was gonna grind the beads flat anyhow...From underneath the car it looks factory.

93hatch · May 6th, 2011, 01:02 AM

sorry didnt mean nicer, I mean nice. Never seen a fox that old in decent shape

Ohsplat · May 6th, 2011, 01:10 AM

the part that boggles my mind is the dent in the center hump where the shifter comes thru the floor. Also a hole in firewall where it looks like the heads went into it. This one is a bit blurry but between the 2 real bright spots is a huge dent. Im starting to think the drive train broke loose at one time.
