Pete, I thought about doing the same, my old 78 RamCharger had that removable center hump. I kept that one piece for years and finally went to scrap. I am just afraid that if I screw the hump down, that it's going to rust out again somehow...
I bought another 150lbs of black slag blasting media, that stuff works pretty good...so good that I discovered that there are two holes, about 1/8" diameter, one is the start of the heel hole and the other is 6" to the rear of it. Not sure what I am goin to do about it, probably weld in some pieces, plate it up. I got plenty of semi-straight sheet metal left from the old body panels. I cleaned up the blasted area and threw down a light coat of primer so that it wouldn't rust with the rain we are getting right now...still need to blast a few more spots, scuff the rest of the underside, and prime, paint and undercoat.
