Re: FLOORPANS!!!!!!!!!

the whole floor pan or just patches rusted through? could just weld in some sheet metal and pour some POR 15 on it to prevent any more rusting

Re: FLOORPANS!!!!!!!!!

Im doin both floors in my 86T/A. They are quite simple. I was gonna do just one but decided to do both. i suggest u do the same if u are at all particular. Classic indusries (in Cali.) sells the set for $399.99. I dont know where u are but the Paddock in Indiana will match the price. Year one in Georgia also sells them for a lot more and they do not price match. I dont know who else sells them but i think there is only one manufacturer, C.A.R.S. Have fun

Re: FLOORPANS!!!!!!!!!

I've did it on my 88 a while back. My patch area was about a 6" square on both rear sides, so i didn't want to replace a whole side. I wish they made just the front and back sections instead of the entire site. If you just need a section patch, you can try the local salvage yards - usually a bunch of 3rd gens. I'm going to cut out what I put in and do this so I can match the stampings. My flat sheet metal patch is solid, but I don't like the way it looks from underneath.

I need both sides just in front of the rear seat where your feet would rest (mines a vert and top leaked). If you need the fronts, maybe we can work out a deal?
