The entire front half of the floor was removed
and replaced with a new section from Porsche Restoration Design. I was
lucky the rear floor section was still solid.
No Floor.
See the light shining from below?
New Floor.
No more light shining from below :-)
DRIVER'S SIDE WHEEL WELL REPLACEMENT
Start with this...
(Needs a bit of repair eh?)
Cut out the Rust.
Follow factory welds if possible
Weld in the factory stamped patch and grind
down the welds
Then sand and prime the patch so it's ready
for painting and undercoating
More Rust Repair...
I had to remove the door to view (and fix) the rust in the door jam.
It was tedious making the lip for the back of the wheel well section
to attach to.
A friend brought over his stud welder
(is that what it's called?) so we could pull dents. We tried it
out on the dent in the nose of the car. The first pull pulled out
more than half of the dent! I should have taken a photo BEFORE
we pulled the dent, but it was about as round as a basketball.
More on this technique is on Page 4.
