83 cutlass cruiser build.

Got the drivers floor pan 80% done, just a little more welding and patching to go. Also test fitted the coupe inner wells and realized they were t going to fit as is. Found out they sit a little uneven and I had to cut a nice angled slice out. Did some light tig tacking to get the piece together for further fitting.

nice amount of progress in a short amount of time! watching some of this, as hopefully soon I'll be working on the Gypsy wagon, and floorpans are pretty much non-existent, and I can almost put my hand through the pass rear wheel well , just about the same place as yours... guess the wagons may have had a problem there...

looks like you have some pretty good fab skills, looking forward to more seeing the progress on this!

thanks, it’s a process. Really sucks they make almost no parts for the wagons, so most has to be fabricated. I look forward to seeing what you do to yours, these things all seem to rust in the same spots for some reason.

Where did you find the wheel well?

it’s not actually for the wagon, that’s why I am modifying it. It was just a gbody coupe rear wheel well. I think inner is cutlass and outter is Monte Carlo.

Props to you for taking on such a significant amount of cancer repair. I always liked the looks of the late Pontiacs.

thanks. My wife likes her wagon a lot, so we decided to just fix what I can.

Dang. Did it again in the same day. You're fixing an Olds...and 1evilregal replied with a Pontiac avatar...in my haste I thought it was your wagon.

So, now I subscribed to watch your progress.

Alright so a little work on my day off. I started to repair the wheel well brace for the passenger side. Since the well was rotted, this shared the same fate as well. Front and middle section is done, but rear section still needs to be done too.

Hey that looks fantastic!
