    I got a floor pan from CJs today. I have never tried to any kind of sheet metal work but Monday would be a good day to try it. Wish me luck, I dont figure I can make it much worse than it is right now. :)

    Could be the windsheild gasket instead of the cowl. My cowl is fine, ac car, no leaks at all. My windsheild gasket leaks, and so does my back glass gasket. Both will be replaced when it gets painted....

    I thought I saw floor pans listed in the AK catalog I just got. Are they listed but not available?
