The car had been sold on the premise and promise that there was only
couple small spots floor spots as it is a "California salt free state" After
ripping the carpeting and quick inspection it was discovered that the small hole
in driver side turned into actually a huge colinder with pin holes everywhere
and some of them size of pencil diameter. The passenger side was marginally
better. Knowing that the floor needed work done, it was decided that rather then
patching small holes here and there and that the engine was going to be replaced
with something more stout, decision was made to completely replace the floor
pans.
Quickly the curiosity sprung and rest of the interior came out then the fenders.
Not realizing the car was in pieces with in a week and a full restoration
started.
