1962 Jeep Willys Build

Do I remove the tool box on the passenger side and put the new floor in, then weld the toolbox back in, or do I trim around the tool box and weld a new floor in?

 

Before.

 

I would remove it then weld the floor in

 

Concur, remove the tool box and replace the whole floor. You'll be happier with the results.

 

Allright...about ready to cut out the toolbox.

 

Side A is tacked in place.

 

This removal wasn't fun.

 

Tacked in place. I'm done for the day.

 

I'm no expert by any means but you should grind everywhere you are welding down to bare metal before welding

 

Yeah...i know. I plan on wire wheeling it all down properly tomorrow before I finish welding

Found this thread..may help you

 

Thanks jeepstar! Helps a bunch.

 

keep it up!, love the progress!

 

4 hours in the garage today. Tomorrow bedline gets applied. Then new fuel tank and sending unit hopefully installed by the weekend.

 

Tank is strapped in. Custom, fast and free strap, so no critiquing please.

 

looks good, price was right, and it works!...what more could a guy ask for

 

Looks factory to me.

 

fuel tank and lines are all new, installed and working properly . What to tackle next? Radiator needs to be replaced. Maybe start searching for the right one.

 

Took off the hitch. Trading for a hood tomorrow.
