    so nice to see someone is making a proper pan for these cars. they also make the piece in the middle where you didn't get one. I have one for a 49-52 I may be putting in.

    I am only having to redo my driver front rocker.. The rest look pretty decent just patch work on them... ImageUploadedByH.A.M.B.1372113283.310851.jpg cut away unusable metal and cleaned up...
    ImageUploadedByH.A.M.B.1372113370.095556.jpg took a one by one square tubing and went from kick panel to B pillar and welded in on front side of rocker.. ImageUploadedByH.A.M.B.1372113501.800553.jpg did this to make a little stronger and make base for panel on top... ImageUploadedByH.A.M.B.1372113689.901631.jpg cut out a panel to fit across!! The rocker was decent to start just about a 7" piece on inside was real bad... Cleaned all unusable metal out.. Weld panel on top and then patched the inside rocker to the top... Got a little bit of patching in the kick panel but all and all not to bad!!!. ImageUploadedByH.A.M.B.1372113951.003762.jpg I hope it helps!! I don't have a lot of fancy tools and such I just get in the garage and try to get it done!!!
