Here is a picture of the trans tunnel on my Camaro. Are these kinks normal? the red oxide primer looks right but these two kinks DON't.

You have to love those factory "flaws". That's one of the only keys to originality in floors. Some have kinks and some have wrinkles. Most of the repop stuff is nice and smooth, but I like the kinks and wrinkles. IMO. You should see the wrinkles in my 69 Camaro's trans tunnel. It looks like a Sharpe (sp.)? dog.

My 68 Z28 has the same kinks in the tunnel. It is the original floor in the car so they are from new. Good to see someone else has them also.

I would think that part of the reason that the kinks/ridges are there is to add structural support...sort of like corrugated pipe...
That's my opinion and I'm sticking to it! ![]() ![]() ![]()

Yesterday, I picked up the replacement floor pan for my Camaro and I have not compared the pan side by side to the original but...it looks like it has those two "kinks" in the exact same place!
