Looking For Pics of the Floor Cutout under the 4 Speed Hump

[65 Dartman]

Looking for any pics of the factory cutout without the 4 speed hump. Wondering how big of a cutout the factory did prior to installing the hump.

Can't help with pics. Locate the hump in the correct position and mark around it then cut 1/2" to 3/4" inside the mark.

Can't seem to get a link to work but check out a thread I did a while back "It's a stick car now!". Should answer any questions you have.

Exactly. To add, the '66 Barracuda that I had (and LilCuda had after me) looked pretty rough in the cutout area from underneath.

I stole these from a post in here a while back .. Should be 64/65.

That seems like a pretty large area to cut out.

Interesting that part of the crossmember was done as well!

I have seen the minimalist approach, But thought that it might leave voids to be filled up with road debris or stuff.

Hmmm not sure I like that either.

I hope these can help you out. Factory '66 Barracuda. The new welding you see is from floor repair. The tunnel is unaltered from factory.

Great pics and many thanks! That's a pretty decent size hole they cut out oh so perfectly!

I like the minimalist approach I want as much metal remaining as possible. Especially if you are going to be using a fiberglass hump.

Don't know if I'll go the large or minimalist way - my hump is an original 65 metal hump. Thanks for the pics!

If you clean the floor hump completely, the hump will locate itself on the the floorpan.Then you would do the 1/2 to 3/4 inch cut inside where the hump sits on the floor. Just my .02 cents
