    How is it possible? Did you strip it off completely (as shown in your pictures) without removing the sound-deadener?

    Don't know what you're looking at but my rear seat original sound deadining material and interior floor deadining material is original and never removed. I'll take a detailed picture for you. I soda blasted the undercarriage but not inside the cab. Again, no need as the car was and still is original material there.

    Now I understand, so you trusted that under the sound deadening everything was perfect.
    Would be really interesting if you could post a nice picture of your original material, thanks.
    By the way, very nice job...

    Yes, absolutely. The floors are in wonderful original shape so I wasn't going to remove the original material. The only rust on this car was in the parcel shelf. I replaced the front pan only because it had been done before and not up to my standards. Here's a picture of the floor. -Scott

    This is a great story. One that deserves to be published in the best possible way.
