So is the A body supposed to be just a stub like the one I posted a pic of? that seems like a crummy setup doesnt it? I allways have to keep grease on the tip to keep it sliding smooth on the actual peadal.

Thi is a pic of my gas pedal (minus the pedal) and the roller I am talking about.

I was just cruising around the Mancini site and I saw a part that I didn’t know existed. Is this supposed to be a roller that goes on the end of the gas pedal rod that comes from the firewall? The setup in my car is pictured below, and I don’t have a roller; I never knew anything was supposed to...

I used a spot weld cutter getting them out, then realized an air hammer is alot faster and funner. As far as getting the new pans spot welded to the crossmember, I got everything in and fitted nice and tight, then just drilled through the new pans till I hit the crossmember, and pooled up a few...

Well as far as the fit, yes, Autobody Specialists pans were VERY nice, but alot more cash. If the rock pans are close, then you are good, they are easy to manipulate to what you need them to be during fitment. So it sounds like they are your best bet, I wish I could hve found them for the 64 as...

I do have a can of the weld through primer, I used it on the frame connectors and it works well. If I am doing any important welding I will use it, but I didnt really care if there was porosity or contaminants in these welds. I was wondering if the shifter change would be noticed, I had to...

I looked at Rock to try and find the pans you need, I couldnt find them to compare prices. Look at this link to Auto Body Specialists. I just got pans from them and was very pleased with the quality. There is also a link to my floor pan install over the past week or so... PAN LINK...

Now all I have to do is Rhino line the underside where the welds are, to cover up bare metal...

And thank ya much Sir!

And this is the final product. All painted up and shiny, ready for the dynamat type stuff, whatever route I go there.

Everything is fitted and welded in place, and I seam-sealed all welds. The welder I was using is a gasless flux machine, so there is some porosity in the welds. I sealed all seams so no water could get through.

These are the freshly coated pans that will be going in.

Yeah, I forgot to add, brake lines really don’t like a sawzall. I checked my path where I was going to cut, and sure enough, I find the only brake line going to the rear. Easy fix to patch in a piece of replacement line, but still bugs me that I chopped right through it.

No sanding off fresh paint, I'll just blast right through it. I will sand down the edges of the fitted pans where i goobered rhino liner on, cant weld through that stuff. This is what I did on the passenger side pan, worked well. I'll put up some better detailed pics tomorrow...

After much downtime on the floor pan project, I am finally back at it. Today I cut the entire pan out of the entire driver side. After wire wheeling everything that is staying, I painted the cross member, and frame connectors, and all the stuff I won’t be able to get to once the pans are in. I...

I think I have done pretty well so far, the old stuff came out very nicely, and the trimming and fitment of the new pans went well. I put rhino liner undercoating on the underside of the pan itself, its drying, but will be in next week after I get back into town.

Sherwin Williams can match MANY colors. Orielly's can as well, they both have a scanner type thing to match a hard to find color.

Cool, thanks all. So I guess ABS is the way to go, bein that’s all we are finding.

I have looked over the AMD site; there is nothing that I need there. I am still yet to call them, I might do so if they are open tomorrow.

This is a picture of what I am trying to repair, the other picture, well guess what kinda metal work is next… big ol tire on order!!

I am have trouble finding sources for floor pans, the link below is the only one I am finding. Are there other companies producing pans? Has anybody heard of this company, and know if they make quality pieces? Thanks much for any help!! 64 Valiant 2 door hardtop...

Badart, keep in mind, if your filter / dryer is close to the compressor, the air comming out of the compressor is still hot or warm. If the air is still hot after leaving the dryer, condensation will form in the air lines. I run my dryer about 10 ft. from the compressor to prevent this. I'm by...

Cool, thanks. I wont be ready for it for about 3 months, I was just looking. 3 of the local shops here said no luck on it, but keep trying I will.

Do you know of another place that will ship?

What do yall think of this windshield? It's actually the only one I have been able to find, I'm not reaaly that fond of the tint strip on the top. But is the asking of $200 fair? I would think so...

I totally understand the dilema you are in. The thing I like about these hoods is they are one piece, like the heim scoop. thats the one i'll be getting soon, once i can justify the price.

here ya go Bill, you will have to get the Barracuda hood, as the Valiants are not made. http://www.usbody.com/

One thing to possibly look at, try to fing a gold lens on your hood. I dont think they are available for the auto dark lenses though. Gold lenses will filter out smoke spatter and other obstructions of your view. I'm a firm believer in them and wont weld without one, they improved the quality of...
