Rickers Posted June 4, 2017 Posted June 4, 2017 Hey guys, My inner sills were replaced by flat sheet metal, along with the floors. So I'm looking for some inner sills that I can use as either templates, or salvage. I'm in no hurry as I head to NZ in a couple of weeks. Cheers, Rick Quote
Rickers Posted June 5, 2017 Author Posted June 5, 2017 Here's a picture of one of the sills (as well as the floor). Quote
Patch Posted June 5, 2017 Posted June 5, 2017 The sills are still behind that, it was done in 1988 they were fine then, at the time you couldn't buy replacement floors and was better than the signs that were bogged in.it is a massive job to replace the floors, why would you do them they are structually sound and not seen under carpet.

Rickers Posted June 5, 2017 Author Posted June 5, 2017 Hey Patch - Oh, just boxed around them? Sweet! I don't doubt that they were done well, it's just not me to leave them as they are (even under the carpet). Thanks for letting me know cheers, Rick Quote
Patch Posted June 5, 2017 Posted June 5, 2017 At the time I didn't like the idea of exposed holes and wanted a cleaner look, thought the carpet would stick to this better, also looking to make it more structually sound for T top, rember these cars were only worth 4k then, no one would spend 20k doing rust repairs, cars sales I bought it off used spray foam, and pop rivets and steel road signs with layers of bog to cover up with, that's how things were done then. Car racing mob next door remarked about was a Datsun really worth all tne work I was doing. Quote
