More progress today until the cutting wheel exploded and slapped me in the stomach.

So far the only thing I see that has to be modified for the blazer floor to work properly is the two humps on the rear step up panel have to be deleted and the lower corner mounting bolts have to be relocated. I have to fab up a little bit on the step up anyway so it is no big deal. I just removed the 2 bolts for now so I could clamp the floor in correct position. As far as the humps I just heated them up with torch and used dolly and hammer to flatten them out.

I also cut out some patches for the a pillars where the po had cut out for speakers. Got them welded in and one of them ground down. Also got the lower a pillar patch cut and welded in on passenger side. next will be the driver side. Somehow I have ended up with 3 passenger outer rockers and no driver side ones.
