decided to cut the floor


i had a hole in my floor for my custom tq arm setup that i wanted to box in. i decided to competely cut out the rear floor and raise it up to make room. im hoping to re run the exhaust down the tunnel under the drive shaft then tuck the mufflers in the new space...we will see how it goes

Seems aweful intrusive just to fit some mufflers in. That type of floor is better suited for a backhalf

Nice. My rear seat pans are pretty screwed up with rust so I was thinking about something similar to this for a rear seat delete.

Thanks for posting these pics man. Gives me some ideas.
