Floors were replaced, they are clean smooth metal painted semi gloss black. It looks like everything was replaced- nuts and bolts, fuel and brake lines, e-brake assembly etc. Here is my honest opinion. I think the body is very impressive. A GM big block under the hood is a nice surprise. The quality of the underside pleasantly surprised me. The interior is a little dated, updated upholstery would bring this car to a high caliber status. It has so much going for it, ready to drive, show and enjoy!
