Can't argue with saving $2000! I'm not sure I would have had the space to do the whole floor replacement at once, but it sure cuts down the amount of welding and grinding that needs to be done.

Haven't decided on the underside finish yet. I'm leaning towards just epoxy paint. I'm definitely going to spray the inside of the b pillar, rocker panels, rocker boxes and everywhere I can inside panels with cavity wax. Only looked at Creep N' Crawl from Woolwax so far.
