    This weekend I got knee deep in the beginning of my full blown interior restoration in my '65 coupe. I have it mainly stripped, I took out a carpet and SURPRISE!!! my floorpans are in great shape. I bought the car with the knowledge that the cowl leaked, so I was astonished to only find surface rust (and a 40 year old matchbook with all the matches still intact) I almost cried at the sight of them, it's almost a shame that I'll be covering them in POR15. Feast your eyes on my ripped apart interior, or post your own pics to make this thread more interesting.

    Front pans, with surface rust mainly on drivers side:

    Current state of my car (I put the seat back in so I can drive it :p ):

    i replaced my passenger floor from the firewall to just behind the seat riser, as well as the seat riser itself.

    i also replaced the rear drivers side pan.

    New seat risers

    I had to replace some home made seat risers, you think PO would have had a clue when they notched the door sill trim to fit over the risers.

    Nice work. Maybe the previous owner was a "Little Person"? :shrug:
