The sheet metal for the notch looks great. I need to do something similar on my 53 Suburban to clear the PB notch. I went with a 2 piece drive shaft similar to what C-10 guys use and I didn't need to cut my floor up any more to accommodate a drive line. I assume you planned to run a 2 piece drive shaft. The Delmo wheels look great. Are they 22's?

Yes I used a 2 piece drive shaft and carrier bearing from Inland Empire Driveline. They were great to work with and shipped the drive shaft within 3-4 days of ordering it. I’ll get some current pics of the rear floor up soon. It change a little throughout the build, but still looks similar.

The wheels are 22 x 8.5 up front and 22 x 10 in the back.
