Got some more stuff off this morning before going to the movies and dinner with my parents for fathers day..... Removed the last piece of fuel line and front shocks..... Also removed the mirrors, arm rest and door panels..... Then got the door and hinges off too..... Last thing I did today was to scrape all the old seam sealer off the door post and cowl area, everthing looks pretty good with a minimal of rust in a couple seams where the sealer was falling out.....
Here's the pic's, the last one is of the extra wiring that I pulled from under the hood and dash(atleast I haven't found any of the factory harness hacked up yet).....

Well tonight I removed the rear seat, interior panels and carpet all only to find some unwanted rust..... So shortly after say oh happy day to myself I started scraping all the seam sealer from the seams on the floor and vacuumed it all up.....
I did find some interesting ways to fix rust or atleast cover it up..... I found this under the carpet on the drivers floor.....
and here is what I found under that fine repair/cover up.....
Looks like I have some damage to the inner torque box panel..... Atleast the front and bottom panel seem to be solid.....
On the passenger side I found this apparently bondo repair of a smaller hole in the floor and possible torque box.....

The passenger side rear floor also had a nice repair..... The first pic shows it attached to the floor, the second shows it after I yanked it off the floor and the third show what the floor looks lie after removing it.....

Yup...This is why I will never buy another classic car in Floriduh. 99% of the people here, will "repair" their rust issues EXACTLY like that. Or worse. It's frustrating to say the least. The really sad part, is that they actually think they can do "restorations" on classic cars.
