Replacing Floorpans

Recommended Posts


The floor pans from MSA do not have the drain holes in the floor. The frame rails match up nicely, however. The only problem that I have found with the floor pans from MSA is that they are not wide enough to go up the door jam and the transmission tunnel. I had to weld in some sheet metal to completely remove the cancer from my '73. I would suggest that you measure how much of the floor pans you would have to cut out before you order any new pans.

I bought both sides from MSA, and I too ran in to trouble with them not being wide enough. Trust me I have done alot of rust repair, more then even Mull (look at my gallery if you don't beleive), and if i could do it over I totally without a doubt would have gone to a resto place and had the guy just cut out sheet metal to fit exactly what I needed instead of having to weld more smaller pieces in!!! As far as the frame rails, they would have matched up well if I had not have got rid of them to put subframe connectors in!!!

I just checked and there are some pics of the floor pans in my gallery, even before I removed the frame rails if you want to see what they looked like. The pics are before I welded in the little extra pieces. They look like they go all the way but thats just bc the F-CK NUT that welded them in left the spaces and filled it in with fiberglass. Yes fiberglass, he must have been sleeping that time I told him my LIFE was going to depend on my racing seat that would be sitting on the floor, so make it strong!!! GOD IT MAKES ME PISSED EVERYTIME I THINK ABOUT IT!!!

MSA has 2 different floor-pan sets to choose from: the low end set and the premium set. I bought the premium set for the '72 and they were plenty wide enough and they also had the drain holes. I highly recommend them.

YES THE PRIEUM SET IS THE SAME AS ZEDD FINGINGS .
