This is a fully documented 69 Z with compleately original drivetrain, right down to the dist. and carb. Thought you would like to see that not all rusted cars are re-bodied.

It's not the back that is limited to the rust.

We've got a 67 coupe in the shop that could be this ones twin. I had to replace the rockers first in order to give the rest enough support to cut apart. Are you useing the complete floor from dii, and the complete trunk floor also? Schonye

Rich, After seeing this car, I think that '67 Z we talked about would have been a cake walk for you http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif I know you'll do the car proud...please keep us updated on this thread if you don't mind. I never would have believed that someone could have repaired something that rusty...but it's great to see that some others are against rebodies. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif

Jeff, yes you have seen the car in the shop. But it's not the Yellow J-L8. It's a Silver Canadian car.

Robert I drove out to Groud-Up in L.I. and picked up the pan. Next week I'm headed out there again for another full floor and trunk pan, along with many additional sheet metal parts.

Let me know if any one would like me to post pics of what differences there are in the repro pans and how to make them look correct when installed. Don't get me wrong the pans are exellent. But to pass the trained eye there needs to be some changes.

I didn't think the Yellow JL8 had that much rust hiding. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
