Well it took a while to get to this point but I found all the pieces to fix everything. I picked up a complete A-pillar from a ttop car, got a used seat bracket that goes over the driveshaft hump, and I bought new floor pans. Oh and I almost forgot the color that I am going to paint the car is 8D(Med.Bittersweet Metallic).

Here is the A-pillar I hacked out of a wrecked 84 GT T-top

Here are the final results of my new floor pans and seat brace installation. As you can see the complete floor is all done sealed and coated.

Sorry I have no pics of the old floor pans out.

I came too late to get A-pillar pictures after the work was done. Good thing the bodyman took some. I showed up as it was going into the paint booth.
