Re: 1957 Chevy 3600 Mild Custom Build

I did not use any extra bracing as I did one side at a time for my first shot at replacing the floors. I thought that the rocker step and the whole other side of the cab would be enough to hold the one side floorboard in place. I did the firewall with the goal of having it completely smooth and flat, minus the brake master cylinder and clutch master. The new cab corners were relatively easy to install, I just taped off the area I wanted to replace, cut the patch panel to fit, tack welded it in all around, and ground it clean.

After the whole floor had been sealed up and I was satisfied with the firewall, I sprayed POR15 on the underside of the cab and on the inside floor and back wall area. There will be a few areas to go back and touch up after I start the painting process.
