that's a major restoration project you are doing,

Judging by the bracing you have in there I assume you are going to be cutting out more than just floorpans eh?

Correct!
The inner rockers and torque boxes are so rusty that they need to be replaced to...

You must have a car that lived out its life in the north judging it by all the rust? Good Luck!

Thanks for the pics! wow, that bracing looks BEEFY! I've been looking around for this kind of info, because I'll be doing similar stuff in a couple years. My body is at least as rough as yours.

One thing I noticed is you don't have a brace directly between the doors. Most systems I've seen have something there. It's probably much less likely to bend in the rear door area than from front to back, but are you planning on adding something there?

Also, did you get measurements on what your car is supposed to be from the factory and push it to that shape? Or did you just try to maintain the existing shape? If you got measurements, where did you find them?
