I had a deal with Cheryl that once the car was done we would update the front Garage.

We wrapped it up this weekend. Had the floor redone by a guy who had a booth at Hastings the past few years.

 

And yes, it still has a small leak, much smaller than earlier this year. Cardboard will have to do until winter.

Yes, the floor looks great !!

For the oil catch, I use dog crate floor liner tubs. I get them at Fleet Farm. Many sizes up to about 24X36. No oil soaking thru the cardboard, or changing of it, just wipe out the pan when needed.

I use these drip pans under all my Fords.

Floor looks great! I'd like to do some work finishing inside my shop as well, but car projects keep taking priority.

Thanks Guys,
Sounds like the pan is the way to go (and simpler than pulling the engine!)

 No, No, No, No....this is NOT a band aid. We'll be over this winter and have the engine on the stand in 2 hours...laughing
