Working on getting the good seat brackets off my old floor pan, just curious are the seat belt mounts that are spot welded to the floor available new or should I reuse them? Have looked some but haven’t had much luck.

Got tired of searching for seat belt mounts, cleaned the originals up the best I could and burned them in. Center seat brace and hopefully the a pillars will be here this week also.

Good day to get some work done, both seats are installed along with the console. Center floor pan brace and outer seat brackets came from gbodyparts and fitment is really good! Now I just need Brian to hook me up with some A pillars

Even put the steering column in to see how it fits since doing the firewall replacement and everything fits nice 😎

Lower quarter panel rust repair on both passenger and driver side. All that is left now is the roof rust issues. Once that is taken care of it will be time for seam sealer and more sanding and priming.

Also started the first round of sanding on the wheels so I can get them polished and painted.

Glad to see you are still working on it. The car had come a long way.

It’s been a nice table since March, been waiting and waiting on the replacement A pillars but the outlook is bright and should hopefully be here Monday. I’ve been knocking out other vehicle projects and have them pretty much done time to get back to work on it.
