Body panels issue, newbie
Posted: Fri Dec 19, 2014 9:09 pm
Hi all
First maybe a short presentation, im Marius aged 40 living in Norway.
I already have FIA HTP racer mini, running it in the Norwegian championship. Build the car myself. So after a few years with no projects I ended up with a 69 pickup. I bought the shell knowing it was abit tired, but not this tired;)
I am changing all the floors including the pickup bed. Also the heelboard ( not sure if this is the correct name )
So to my question, When cutting the rotten steel, there have been 4 very bad attempts of welding on the ends of the heelboard. Where the rear subframe is attached. So I can not see how this was original.
Are there any "connection" between the heelboard and the rear fender, or any other bits that needs to be there?
Anyone got pictures of this or know where I can find some. Google did not help me here.
As it sits now there abit of air between the end of the heelboard and the fender, should there be any connections here?
Trying to upload a pic of the end of the inner sill stiffner panel, this is where im not sure if something is missing.
Tanx
