The center tunnel, rocker panels, and roof of the car are the structural parts to stabilize the front to the rear. The car won't "fold" if you cut out a section of the floor.

I did zip on the cars! Retired last Wed. and I had to spend the day cleaning out my work van so I can turn it in next week. But after that I can spend all day on the cars if I want to!

Good for you. I'm still at the tired stage, not time for the "re" part yet.
