Floorpan lifted

Lots of work going on.
Floorpan successfully seperated from bodyshell:
No rust on it at all, save for that which you see on the surface.
Bodyshell isn’t too bad either…
The area forward of the rear left arch was a bit dented, but Neil was able to beat it out with his madskillz. The other side needs some work however, as there’s lots of random dents and filler covering. No pics of that yet.
One thing I found when I was stripping the remnants of interior out; the original colour!
The pale blue is what the previous owner put on; the maroon colour seems to date from the car’s South African days. The white, found under the window rubber seals and under the headlining, is likely the original colour; so the car shall be restored in that colour.
The floorpan and some ancillaries are going for shotblasting on Tuesday!
