Looks like the typical wrong jacking up of the car.

The floors don't look bad at all from the pictures, why did you replace them , or was their hidden rott we can't see in the pictures? 

Most likely the case, damage that was done by the previous ownership. 
 

Passenger floor pan had rot where it overlapped the frame rail, right under the seat brackets. The drivers side probably could have been saved. It had some rot where it met the firewall and a few big dents I was worried would never fully come clean. Gambled replacing the entire panel would be quicker than all the smaller jobs.

Don't forget to look at the inside of the outer beams (between the wheels..) that should be the place to lift your car.. not the inner beams! (use a endoscope, sometimes the lower part of the inner plate in the beam is completely gone, and it makes the changing a wheel with a normal jack a desaster.)

Take a look in the servicemanuals..

It's gonna be a nice car!! 

Absolutely, I’ve got special pucks I made with a notch down the middle to slide over these jack points for the 2 post 

Just about done with the AC hardlines. Once I get the dash built up I’ll finish plumbing these up to the Vintage Air unit.

Nice clean looking install!

Massive photo dump impound - bunch of progress made over the past few months

Full T3 suspension going under the Z. Color choices from T3 aren’t the best, that’s in the works to change 

BC extreme low coilovers  

Ztrix dash also arrived. Top notch piece from John. Lots more to come on this 

Lots of hardline fabrication 

Tanks Inc in-tank fuel pump installation 

I just found this thread, outstanding fabrication work!

Why did you decide to take the clutch slave line through the passenger compartment?

The fuel tank work looks really clean!

Actually all the work looks really clean but I found the fuel tank work to be a very creative solution

Purely aesthetics. I didn’t want to cross over the fuel lines with it as they’re routed right above the clutch line. I’m getting really good at making simple things harder. 

Getting color on the body. Previously on the fuel tank we sprayed the top coat with Raptor Liner, reduced enough so you could use a traditional HVLP gun. This gave a very fine texture, similar to what’s on the dash. Really liked the finish so we replicated the same procedure with the underside of the car in the factory color.
