Building the rear floor pans

Stock floor pan sitting on extra frame
Since my body is channeled over the frame, the stock floor pan would not work without really cutting it up. I thought that someone else may want to use it in a restoration, so I decided to just fab up my own floor. below are a few shots of the new pieces.

The rear oval originally held a rubber sheet to clear the rear differential housing!

I started  with a cardboard pattern, then copied it to a sheet of 18 gauge and rolled in some beads, and a flange for the battery box cover and its' hinge.

Fast forward a bit, the floor welded in place, and the sides for the box finished.
