The project was just completed last week.  The Delta pans were for model years 72-74 and since mine is a 75 they required a lot of hand fitting.  The small pneumatic body saw at Harbor Freight ($19.95) was invaluable.  It cut the panels like a hot knife through butter.  Used a couple of tubes of 3M body seam sealer, undercoated with 3M Body Schutz, sprayed the inside with "Lizard Skin" ceramic coating and over that applied Fat Mat - similar to Dynamat and then the Delta carpet kit. After wiring was completed everything worked but the fuel gauge.  It was started and ran great although it has a very load induction growl below 3000 rpm.  I use past tense because my Conversion Components NZ clutch release bearing failed after 30 minutes........I'm trying to summon the courage to take it all apart again.  I was not a careful documentor but I do have some pictures.  I'll try and put them together and burn a CD.
