Passenger's Side Rocker Panel

I didn't take pics of installing the driver's side, but I have some of installing the passenger's side rocker panel.

I spent lots of time fitting the panel, then laying the front fender on top to see how it all lined up.  It's not perfect, but it's pretty close and I'll "make it fit".

Let's face it.  I'm not building a Concours-level car here.  I am pretty happy with the work I'm doing, even if it isn't what I wish I could do (that whole "learn how to do stuff" means mistakes).  All I really want is for it to be safe and look nice.  All my plug welds show good penetration, so I'm feeling confident that things are solid.

Congratulations, It's a Floor

Skimming over a bunch of fitting challenges and plenty of welding, to proudly announce the arrival of a bouncing baby completely installed floor pan.

 

It's... glorious.
