Replacing a Rusted Out Floor Pan - Resurrecting a 1968 Plymouth Satellite Part 3
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 27 авг 2024
- As solid as the Satellite is, the floor pans need some serious attention. Fortunately a full floor pan was available and reasonably priced. I've never repaired a unibody car, so there was a learning curve. Grinding spot welds was very time consuming but made for a very professional repair. I ALWAYS start with the worst part of the car so everything else seems a little more fun in comparison.
Enjoy the suffer!

Your the hardest working man on RUclips . Gonna be a nice ride when you get her done
Good job
Your channel is never boring to me. Its fun to watch old stuff born again. Satisfying to watch and even more when done.
Much respect, work all day come home and work all night. Great job Dan. 👍
Dan Dan the Floor install man!!!
You are absolutely correct. Tackle the worst first. The hardest part is getting started.
I enjoy watching you young fellows do all the jobs I never got to do in my younger days. Very good looking finished product.
It's so cool that you take on Mopar projects too. Especially since the parts for them are quite expensive! You do quality work! Fun to watch you save so many cars so quickly!
Now I just wanna see him do a ford. Lots of chevys and a few mopars, now we need a blue oval in the mix
I like it when you do the fast mode with the music. You will be known as the floor wizard from this day forward.
Replacing floors is some of the most satisfying work when it done, yet no one sees it....lol
The satellite videos are my favorite!
I’m happy you used the complete floor pan. Seems to me it’s stronger and closer to OEM. Great work as usual.😎
LOVE IT> MAN YOU HAVE NO IDEAL HOW MANY OF YOUR VIDS ARE GOING TO SAVE OLD CARS AND TRUCKS KEEP IT UP BROTHER.
It's good to be diversified with the different car manufacturers. That way your really happy when you get to work on the ones that you really like!
You sure get a lot done in that garage of yours! Major job and you're so casual. Cool and fun to watch. Thanks. Get r done.
No kidding! Some people do months of preparation and research before replacing floor pans, Dan does it after work once a month 😂
That car is very solid for a northern car of its age. Very nice project
YOU Love What you do and it shows Best CHANNEL 😁😁😁😁
I love watching you do floor's and body work, your so good at it. nice job Dan.
awesome job love the dog dish caps
Damn nice job Dan, glad you didn't 'short cut' install. Your talents shine thru again sir.
Gr8 Job Dan the floor Man !!🇨🇦🇺🇸👍👍
Yeah a lot of work, but it's worth it in the long run. That floor looks awesome.
satellite is looking good Dan keep up the struggle!
Nice work, Dan! With the floor and quarters you are going to have a good solid body. I hope you can find a good motor.
liking this build , good job
The floor looks awesome!..I think once you get a big block in it you will be a Mopar guy!
Even though you think it's tedious, I enjoyed the floor welding video. Dani: thanks for reminding him it's a PLYMOUTH! I grew up with late 50's Plymouths at home.
It's nice to have all the repro parts available now days. I remember having to put patches in the floor of my Dodge back in the day.
It's much more fun watching other people do the work now days. 😊
Really enjoy your hard work saving all those old American vehicles. Gordon. Aberdeen. Scotland.
Thanks for going to the trouble to make that front floor/rear floor junction like it should be. Happy, happy.
Dan, you ain't kidding that was a pile of work. But getting the hardest jobs out of the way 1st, makes the easier jobs so much more enjoyable. You and your steel wheels and your grandma hub caps, kill me. Open up your mind, there are literally hundreds of beautiful wheels out there. Lmao. Jk you do what makes you happy. Thank you for entertaining us, looking forward to the next one
You are such an animal! You did the right thing with the floor. I always do the worst task first too. It looks great and should really top off the rest of the effort. Perseverance is character trait that is a blessing and a curse. You push beyond normal limits but you get results beyond the normal as well. I think its a great job done. Now the old boy deserves a nice motor, to be loud and fast. Take Care guys, Dennis in Virginia
Want to thank you for the idea. Needed to get a non running car in the garage to get it running (eventually) and get the rear end out for rebuild. Went to Harbor Freight this morning and got a winch. Boy did that work great!!! Thank you so much, John
And the restoration begins! Thumbs up!
Finally called it a Plymouth! Thank you
Yup she looking a lot better now with the new floor in it. Looking good.
Love your show
Pretty darn solid. You did an amazing job!
Very nice job yeah it takes a while but so much better job can't wait for quarters!👍
as usual you are doing a fine job plymouth is looking good
Great job young man. Do it right the first time. Tough job, you got this.
Love this car. Post a for sale video when the body work is done! Let the fans buy it.
looking good - your skills getting advanced
You sure make an aweful lot of work for yourself ...... there was some pretty good perfectly fine factory sheet metal you cut out when a small patch would have been perfectly fine. But I do admire your determination and dedication to doing an ENTIRE floor. I would not hesitate purchasing a car from a builder such as yourself ...love the channel watch all the time ❤
Well done I admire you’re patience, as always. Nice change from tri 5s
Good job!👍
I like the Plymouth stuff..and love the floor pan install vids.
Trying to get myself psyched up to do my 55 Caddy floors.
You're an inspiration.
Thanks
Get after it man.
Just refer to all Chrysler Dodge and Plymouth products as Mopar and everyone will be happy.
Dan, you're an absolute madman! Floor looks great man!
Thanks buddy!
It doesn't matter to me what it is. Ford Chevy Dodge doesnt matter. Thank you for bringing life back into these old farts..... Ps thanks for sneaking these vids back up to 30 mins. Always a big thumbs up from me buddy👊👍💯
Thanks for the support my friend
Nice DODGE bud!
pucker those lips...
You don't need to worry about the wiring catching fire!
Nice Plymouth bud!
@@4ndy530 Cuz there's none? :-P
@@AndrewKarpyszyn hahahahaha 👌
Enjoying the content, I know you hate body work but sure helps a amateur guy to tackle it himself.
You done a good job. You should feel better now, that you did it this way and not just patch it up.. In the long run, you just raised the value of the car quite a bit. You should be proud of your self. Ronnie.
Great job on it. Can't wait for the next video of it.
The floor turned out good 👍👍🇨🇱
Good morning Dan, another great day to get started on the Plymouth. Time to go to work buddy. I'm learning a lot from you.
That turned great nice job and Dan
Great job on the floors.
Good to see it done correctly, full floors are definitely the way to go. Had to replace floors on my 68 sport satellite also, only thing i did weld in some subframe connectors before cutting up the floors just to be sure the body doesnt flex. They are also plus if you want more torque too :)
I just got done doing a 68 satellite convertible, took me two and a half years but I basically did the same thing he's doing oh, it's a passion it's a love of old cars
Hey Dan
Not boring at all.
Kudos to you and your hard work.
Take care😁
i love watching you bring back to life old iron that i rode in in my youth, brings back memories of better times
Self tappers work mint for that, that’s what I use too. Great job, I like the new Dan sound effects
This is why I'm here.
Floor came out nice Dan
Man your getting good at them floors. 👍 looking good
love the plymouth stuff...
Great job. It’s looking solid, I even like the factree green. Make a great sleeper
"Your probably getting tired of watching me complain about cutting floors right?" NO were not!!!
Yes I am
Hey Dan you should talk to Chris birdsong , at junkerup. He's in the Vegas area and has more Mopar stuff then you could figure out what to do with God bless brother
Ya Chris has a number of good ways to stiffen up the frame for the bigger torque situations [stroked 400 is his fave B-body motor to keep big power under the hood without any ugly fugly scoops lol]. Still rather see you build an old Pontiac to breath some fire :-) But the Satellite is a cool car in that angry boxy sort of looking way. :-)
Awesome! I do NOT have the guts to do that... But I'm gonna have to because I have a Jeep Wrangler to repair. Necessity is the mother of invention!
Floors look great! I did them in my 71 Monte Carlo. It feels good to know what’s going on under that carpet.
All my thumbs are up! My 67 coronet needs front rails behind steering box. I`ll keep watching.
Nice job on the Plymouth Bub!I like watching ya!
nice work, keep going ! my favorite car so far
Good job of doing the floor as far as I can see. Nice job of filming it too! Can see what would be involved if ever any of us wanting to try it ourselves. Shows too if you paid someone to do it, the amount of work it actually is! Answer: "Lots of work!"
Channels like this are important. Starts getting people to do more of there own work and stepping out of there ring of limitations. Well done DD your an inspiration
Those dog dish caps are going to look kick ass
You did a very impressive job, Dan! It would have taken me months to do the same! You're very talented and it's a pleasure to see this Satellite beeing saved!
I can not wait for the next videos!
Good job! Huge difference
I wish these panels were available in 1987-90 when I restored my 69 Super Bee.
When I retire or slow down I am going give the car the once over one more time and make it right.
I have had the car 35 years now it was my first car.
Great job on the floor replacement. Keep on trucking
Those dog dish hub caps go perfect with your love of steel wheels. (Remember big block Mopar trans only fit big blocks so if you go to a 318 get the trans too.)
Binge watching this build...Love it!
Thanks!
Killing it, Dan!
Glad you opted for the full floor. Those can be very solid and very fast cars. You might want to gusset the K member and order some stout torsion bars that will match your power goal. Old torsion bars get noodley over time. Paint the car and keep it.
Looks totally mint Dan. Going to be another keeper with a sweet 440. 👌
You done a great job. I wish I could find employees with your work ethic and your QC standards. .
good job!
Great job, you kicked ass on the floor. Very cool.
Looks great Dan the Man!
I forgot about the torsion bar suspension.. but I like this car 🚗 pretty crazy your doing all this work on this Flintstone Car.. keep up the good work Dan
You're moving right along... I agree with getting the booger stuff out of the way first. Hopefully you have better luck with the next engine that you find. Thanks for Sharing
Looks killer. Must feel good to have that HUGE job out of the way.
Looking good dan.
D & D, think you need to change your You Tube name to Floor Pan Dan(Lol), being serious, after watching you do floor pans it has changed my mind in either scrapping a car with rusted floor pans to "Just do it"!! The really neat thing is, you have saved another vintage ride!! Git er done!! Be safe, God Bless!!
Great job on the floors. Always enjoy your channel
Great stuff Dan !! Thank you for sharing !! You are doing a good job my friend !!!! Be careful and God bless you all !!!!!! Eddy
I'm glad to see you doing the tuff stuff, the next owner will really appreciate it. I do the same thing, not as fast as you.
NICE job. Took the extra time and it turn out really nice!!!
That floor pain looks great you did a great job on it keep up the great work and I love your videos all of them 💯👍🏻👍🏻🙏🙏🙏🙏👌
*Looks GREAT!!!*
*Always Fun Doing Floors!! But Well Worth it when done right!!*
Only thing i Would have done different is use weld through primer
MINT ! Nice job man 😎👍
