A bit of a problem to deal with this weekend
while waiting for Jeff's refurbished dizzy to arrive.
Oh yeah! And also while waiting for the new dizzy cap
and dizzy rotor the Wire guru missed when he went over
everything! I ordered them this afernoon. So stay tuned
for a Tinster Special Refurbish of the rotted floor pan.

Path forward to Crypt Car engine re-start
in progress. I've been rust removing, scraping
and wire brushing the rotted driver's floor pan
so I can fabricate and install a reasonably decent
temporary heel support.

Today is floor pan primer coat day. Everything vacuumed
cleaned up, scraped down, scrubbed down, washed in xylene,
maked off and tin foil covered. Total car cover then applied.

Now for the rattle can work. My **** poor lungs gonna
grumble at me for a week!!

I've seen worse LBC floors. This gives you something to work on while waiting for parts! You can do it... all of it. You've invested a lot of your blood and sweat so far and this is just one more hurdle. All of it will get done! Hang in there.
