It appears that the back 2 frame to body bolts are either not there, or have pulled through the floor. The front bolts appear to be there in some form. Maybe. You can most likley save it, but it's gonna be expensive, and very time consuming as I'm sure there are multiple issues that we can't see.
You may want to consider another project that is less material, or labor intensive. If not, good luck, and get friendly with your good mark dealer. If you need a full floor, the dii's fit well. |

Mark, you are right about me making a decision here. If I keep it I will make it look original, so I want good quality. And I also saw it as a good testvehicle (not so good anymore
![]() I might add that the frontend problem looks worse than it is. The subframe just wasn´t bolted to the unibody correctly. The problem is the floor and rear part of the body. Before they started working on it, I don´t think it was much worse than COPO-Pete´s white racer before it was restored. Schonye, like you said, there are multiple issues to consider. If I could find a car here in Sweden that I could cut the back-half off, it would save me some time. But I don´t think there is such a donor-car around. What is dii´s web address by the way ?
