Earl B. Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 My front floor pans are in rough shape, and it's time to do something about them. I know there are several companies which make them. Now the $64000 question....who makes the best fitting, most accurate ones? thanks, Earl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earl B. Posted June 7, 2015 Author Share Posted June 7, 2015 106 views and no replies. It's amazing that no one with a '55 has had to replace their floor pans. I guess I got the only one with floor pans that rusted out..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bhigdog Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 Most folks likely used pans from a donor car, I've seen some repro pans and was not impressed with fit or quality. I would say if you are expecting repro pans that will look and fit as original you will be disappointed..............Bob 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smartin Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Yeah the pans that are out there are very crudely made compared to the factory stampings. They work with some beating and trimming....but nothing short of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
