1500 'S' floor pan 01/09/2013

 
First time this has ever been apart.


Clean and original paint on the hand brake. I will retain this as is.



Original tar stuck to the pan.













 
You can see where I had to cut the pan to make a repair to the clutch tube a few years ago. This will be re-cut and welded back so it's spot on before paint.












Not a bad floor pan considering it's 49 years old.
 
Surface rust was about what I expected based on the rust discovered below the rear window. Not major but something to deal with.
 
Next step now the pan is stripped down is to get a quote on chemical cleaning and de-rusting then I can attack the dents and dings etc.
