Well my 2.3 Pinto disease flared up again and I bought this lovely example[size=78%].[/size]
Runs, drives, generally feels like a 40 year old econobox would.
However...
Little did I know what evil lurked beneath the soaking-wet-for-decades floor mats once I ripped the carpet up.
Rotten. No floorpans whatsoever. The turd brown paint should have tipped me off.
I have to make a call on this thing; Luckily I'm crafty with TIG and MIG and general metal fab.
I've read around quite a bit, but I want to know if anyone has definitively replaced the entire floorpan with Mustang II sheet metal or what, even with modifications. I realize finding another wagon with good floorpans is my best option, but that seems like an outside chance...
Any help appreciated.
Thanks-
Paul
