About to start my "quick resto" and am noticing now that carpets and noise tar are out, that the floors have some high areas (from running over stuff!). I swung a carpenter's hammer at it a few swings and the floors just laughed. I've got a 3lb hammer around somewhere that I'll try next..but getting a little dolly under it doesnt seem too helpful. Anyone got a better method?

Yes the 914 floors act like a polaroid for all abusive behavior to the car....!
I found a 9lb hammer used gently & sparingly helped a lot to get minor dents adjusted. Go slow and check with a straight edge often. - Tony |

This is PO damage BTW, same as, but slightly worse than what was done by the PO of my /6 conversion, years back. I was always a bit annoyed with the floors on that car - just knowing that they were uneven kinda bothered me the whole time. So, I'd like to correct these before putting it on the road. |
