Hello again,

After dumping AOL, I am now temporarily freeloading on my significant others server. Any way, I finally got around to taking a real close look at a 67 Alpine which a "friend" sold me for $250. I did mange to fix?!? the door gaps which were tight on top by jacking up the car and placing blocks at the four corners of the X-brace. It seems the nickname 'flexible flyer' fits. If anyone has replaced the floor or sills, I'd like to know how you did it. After removing the drivetrain and suspension, should I do the sills or the floors first? Should I do the floor one side at a time? Should I make a temporary brace while I remove the sills so the body doesn't shift, or is this overkill? Can anyone reccomend a good source for quality replacement metal? Lots of questions, any help would be appreciated.
