Then it was back to the **** end of the car, to continue cutting the old boot floor out.. this time the driver’s side. It’s clear from looking at this side of the car that whatever crash she was involved in years ago was definitely more on this side







That’s when I could see the crease in the rear chassis rail



You can see where they’ve heated the rail up from the outside & then pulled & hammered at it to try & get it straight… they failed BTW..



Also there is a really bad kink at the end of the rail..





You can see how the new straight floor sits on the rail to see just how far out it is





Now I had really thought that rust would be the big drama with this car when I started this, but she’s really good compared to lot of other Falcons I’ve seen, my issue is really going to be fixing this dodgy repair & then reworking all the rear panels to line up properly again… I have a few ideas for fixing this rail, I’m not 100% if they work just yet… but stay tuned for my cunning plan.
