Does anyone have any experience with the 75-78 280Z floor pans from ZeddFindings? I'm looking for thoughts on how well they align with the existing bends and angles in the 280 floor. Installation pictures would be great. Thanks in advance and yes I did try a search but it seems to only result in 240 style floor pan replacement.

Blue,

How much did the pans and rails cost you? I removed carpet tonight, and WOW....discovered I'm going to need to start price shopping and learning how to weld. My project just got a little longer and more pricy, not that that comes as a surprise

FYI... don't expect any repro floor pans to fit perfectly. They will need some work to get them to fit correctly. That's true for pans for a S30, a 1969 Camaro, a 1966 Mustang, a 1972 Beetle, etc.

Thanks Blue,

I found them last night and took a look. May be some time before I get around to them, as I am the lone income in the household, but one day.....one day

Like John said-definitely not plug and play. Here some pics of the ones I did on a 73 240. Notice a new untouched pan next to a worked to fit-pan. The pans do not follow the tunnel at all, you have to beat them into submission. I spent probably 40 hours doing this car-because I'm not a bodyman, plus if your rust gets into the foot boards the panels don't cover this. Also, the outboard edge radius is too deep which can put your floor at an angle if you don't catch it. Of course I have ordered panels for a 69 Porsche 911 that weren't any better-welcome to the world of aftermarket!

What about the seat mounts? Do you just mark where they are and cut them out then weld them back in? My frame rails are not bad not sure how this will work.not sure i need to cut this all out.
