Got the body off last night. everything looks pretty solid. Looks like the PO missed a few tack welds when putting the new pans in. Going to replace all the rear end bushings, clean everything up and give it a few coats of POR15. Pictures to come. I was done after getting the body off and headed to bed.

Alright, here is proof. Thanks for the offer on the welder, but I have one!

The pan is going to stay under the body and I am going to roll it out to work on it.

Should I remove all the cardboard like stuff on the tunnel?

Heater channels look solid! Thankfully!

These are the two front body bolts on the drivers side. I believe the one that is rusted away is from brake fluid.
