Biohazard
Well, I guess its the shop manual + common sense on the windows.
Meanwhile, I'm ready to drop the carpet in the back seat area but wanted to do a little clean up work on the floors first. The application of [I'm assuming] sound deadener was done in a very haphazard fashion and, 47 years later, was just a lot of brittle, porous gunk on the floor. I decided to scrape it all out but, since it was added before the paint, scraping it meant exposing bare steel so I would then have to throw down some paint to prevent rust. Let's get started!
Scraping the sound deadener goo out of the stamped channels in the floor pan...
Shop-vac'd the debris up and then brushed some satin black Rust-O-leum on over the bare metal.
The rear passenger floor area...
Passenger side, under the rear seat cushion...
Rear passenger side footwell...
Beneath the passenger seat....
Then I got all the paint down, doing complete footwell areas because...why not? Notice the yellow paint pen marks in the body plugs - it's my way of keeping track of which plugs were replaced and which were not. There's just too many to keep up with.
A little bit of Peel N Seal adhesive roof flashing as a seam sealer...
I've been giving the paint plenty of time to fully dry so that my carpet padding doesn't stick to it.
