Mig welding in floor panels on a challenger in the shop.

Ah now I know what they are supposed to look like. Lol I was just winging it and having fun.:D

Pretty easy to make. Took me maybe an hour or hour an a half. You don't need to many fancy tools to do it. I only made one. I got too many car projects going on to make more. Youtube blacksmithing a metal rose I believe and give it a try.

To someone. I was laughing my butt off making that.

Well I guess if you are calling us out I weld. Prefer tig myself and I cheated and used a sander on one of these but that is also a pretty valuable skill. Knowing how to metal finish pieces correctly. Keeping the welds coming and there's some nice work here.:burnout:

I'm not familiar with that design exactly. I just used some 16 ga. mild steel. :cheers:

Well I've always hated the ugly pinch weld too. Problem is it hangs 1 7/8" under the stock frame rails. With out a complete custom chassis and floors that makes it pretty difficult to do. Maybe the next car I build. I got the exhaust tips designed and now have to get the exhaust up to them...

But yes I am tucking the exhaust up into the car quite a bit. The floors will be modified along with the tranny cross member.

Well i got some Hooker headers laying around I was going to look at first and consider modifying. If I have to build custom headers, no big deal. There kind of fun to build anyhow.

Oh and thanks autoxcuda on the SCCA information. I will have to tear it up on some of those events someday.

Alright got some updates. The quarters are close to fit along with the trunk extensions. I've been focused on getting my exhaust exiting threw the quarters. The exhaust tips will probably follow the card board templates shape.

I'd like to possibly enter some open road challenges with the car. There are no SCCA events around MN that I am aware of. Car will have a 1 3/4 custom cage in it built by me. Working on the custom 4 link mounts and fitting the quarters along with new trunk extensions. I'll move on to the getting...

Thanks for the welcome. The build is posted in members restorations. 69 Barracuda Pro Touring. Thanks again. Travis

No plans for air ride. Just double adjustable coil overs. No plans for fender flares at the moment either. As far as paint color I haven't picked out anything specific. Thinking possibly a wicked green like the Dodge Viper snakeskin color. Threw in some more pics of the subframe connectors I...

Cars been media blasted with glass media. Epoxy primed. Mini tubs are in progress along with getting the rear quarters fit.
