Minitubs are DONE!

Well on Friday I found some time as my wife and son went shopping.  I decided to try and complete the minitubs and get them squared away.

Here I show you what I have left.  The old seatbelt mount was rotted away and I needed a new seatbelt anchor.

Here I show you how bad my welding it.  While I penetrate the metal, I don’t have a nice clean weld.

Now with the metal replaced I grinded the welds down flat and seam sealed over it all.

After all that dried I painted POR15 over everything to protect it.  I did the entire trunk, the rear seat area and the inside tubs.
 
 
 

My plan is to put sound deadener on the inside of the car and then use rocker guard inside the tubs to cover the POR15 as it has no UV protection.  Don’t want the sun breaking it down.
