    Finally finally finally getting restarted on Anna's 66 Convertible.

    png upload

    Still in the process of cutting out the old floor pan to replace with a whole new one. The area right below the back set frame area under that panel that contains the Vert motor has some Pinch Welds I have to drill out to break it free from the old floor pan metal. Does anyone have a count on just how many pinch welds were used and the locations? The one on the back and front are found and finished, it is the internal ones I am trying to drill out.

    I've got all sort of bracing welded in to keep it from collapsing in on itself.

    Looks like your making great progress on Anna's convert even though it is a little at a time when you can steal a hour or two.   glad to see all the bracing you've put in to hold it 's shape and keep it from collapsing in on itself. 

    A bad day working on your mustang beats a good day at work anytime
