Thanks for the info-I just ordered a set from the same link! I did it the hard way 2 years ago with my 70 Barracuda. I spent HOURS and HOURS grinding through each weld...never again thanks to you! Dod you have an estimate of how long it took you to cut all the trunk floor welds and remove the trunk pan?

Looking good. I am just beginning the tear down of my 68 Road Runner. The driver's side was hit hard and repaired with a sledge hammer and a couple of gallons of bondo. I have had to remove the inner structure and door jamb. I am onto the trunk in the next few weeks.

when its metal your not gonna use i tend to take the air chisel to the spot welds...you wont did into the rail...saves a ton of time over drilling the welds. if you plan on reusing a panel a 1/2 roto is humongas and your just filling and filling for reuse i like 3/8 but fresh metal ill drill a 1/4 in hole to plug weld. i need to get back on my 68, your cars alot more solid than mine however, i woulda loved to get away with cheater skins.

Awesome work ! Just out of curiousity .....Does anyone know if you can split the full trunk floor right over where the frame rail is and have it still fit through the trunk opening ? It would save having to "finish" the bottom of the trunk floor as the frame rail would hide it
