Floorpan Sheet Metal

Forgotten 61 Posted 2014-09-24 8:56 PM (#457291) Subject: Floorpan Sheet Metal Veteran Posts: 157 Location: Central New York Hello all, things have been progressing on Bellvey. I was wondering if anyone knows of stamped floor pans for our FWDLK cars being reproduced. More precisely, 1961 Plymouths. What was at first believed to be relatively firm sheet metal on the floors quickly turned out to be quite flimsy while sand blasting on the absolute lowest pressure setting. (Picture blasting Christmas wrapping paper) Needless to say the weakness of the metal has been exposed. Any and all help will be much appreciated. Thank you. 60 dart Posted 2014-09-24 11:25 PM (#457300 - in reply to #457291) Subject: Re: Floorpan Sheet Metal Expert 5K+ Posts: 8948 Location: WHEELING,WV.>>>HOME OF WWVA http://www.ebay.com/itm/FRONT-FLOOR-PANS-CHRYSLER-DESOTO-DODGE-1960... pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&fits=Year%3A1961|Make%3APlymouth&hash=item20ec43444e&vxp=mtr Forgotten 61 Posted 2014-09-25 2:22 PM (#457371 - in reply to #457300) Subject: Re: Floorpan Sheet Metal Veteran Posts: 157 Location: Central New York Thanks 60 Dart. that's a big help.

Do a good search on this site (through Google) to get a better idea of the actual quality. Then decide if that's what you want. Personally I think if you have some welding skills under your belt, you could handform a few panels yourself aswell. It's only metal. Here are some topics I found after a quick search; http://www.forwardlook.net/forums/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=33110 http://www.forwardlook.net/forums/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=26819 http://www.forwardlook.net/forums/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=45137
