I hunted down a 69 Pan in the Seattle area for parts.

We really picked this pan clean before we where done.

Wow, that pan reminds me of what I did to Krunchy's pan. Floors on both sides, and replacing the entire frame head (rather than replacing the bottom plate). I also swapped out the beam due to rust and a broken left torsion bar.
Definitely some nice work going on. Very Happy Here some pics of mine.

Wow! I always vote for keeping the original pan, but in this case I would have hesitated. Impressive work!

You Sir performed that replacement masterfully. I really liked how you dealt with the issues before you and showing others another option to dealing with that type of challenge. Look forward to seeing your progress evlove. Keep it up!
