Cutting A Classic Car In Half To Fix The Rust!

DD Speed Shop recently acquired a 1956 Chevy — it is in the shop and it is RUSTY!

Even though the car is already mostly stripped-down, it still needs to come further apart before any repairs can be done. Once the front clip was pulled, Dan gave the whole car a full wash in preparation for going under the knife.

First, the rockers were chopped off one at a time and replaced with new sheet metal to keep the structural integrity of the car. Once he was happy with that, he started cutting out all the rusty floors to make room for the new pan, followed by a little repair to the quarter panel.

This car was pretty rough, but with a little knowledge and some basic hand tools, anything can be fixed…
