Default 1975 Frame Off

Any thoughts on using spray undercoating on the interior floor pans or will this cause ordor as the floors get warm from exhaust. Also looking for fire wall insulation pad for 75, Ecklers has for $270.00 are there any others available without the high price tag.

Thanks,
Ed

What are you trying to accomplish with the undercoating? You could try some of the new Sound Deadeners, they work well and mold to your car interior.

I wouldnt undercoat the interior. Floorboards get warm from the exhaust system, and I would think you'd smell the undercoating...There are products available for interior use.

Thanks Guys, It looks like there is some kind of undercoating already sprayed in from the factory. But I agree there would be an odor issue. I do have the insulation kit. Any ideas on the firewall insulation.

Thanks,
Ed
