Default 35 3 Window on Rotisserie

Hi Fellas,
The weather down in OZ has been a little better lately, and I have had a chance to put the 35 3 Window on a Rotisserie.
I have Por-15 the entire inside, and also where the body sits on the chassis.
The Original floor is in great condition. If anyone wants any detailed pictures, please PM me.
Here is a picture of it sitting on it,s side.

That is really nice!
How much weight will it handle?

Looks great - surprised your battery floor opening is so small - here's my 3 Window in a similar pose - note the battery tray opening

Let me guess......that smaller square opening is for access to his master cylinder. Remember, now in Australia.....they drive on the goofy side over there. What do I know? DD

V8COOPMAN - You have it right . Master cylinder hole.

PeterC - Your floors look excellent. Mine is a January build 35, and there seems to be 2 more seat brackets as compared to your picture.

Por-15. I wish people would stop using that stuff. It ruins an otherwise nice restoration. Por -15 is for sealing up rusty crappy areas when you are patching a rust hole in a 1985 Honda.
Those floors are beautiful, no need for por-15. Por -15 is permanent, non-original,a very poor appearing finish and looks sloppy no matter how hard one tries to make it nice.
Nice car by the way! very nice metal! Did you sand or bead blast the underside?

What else would you put on? High end paint that will get ruined by road debris?

I prefer brush-on Rustoleum and heresy.

OP-Nice car!
