Source for floor section?

AlanInMass54 · Posted: Mon Nov 16, 2015 11:56 am Post subject: Source for floor section?

I'm putting original used floors in my car. The floors didn't have the rear most section and the ones there are cut/rusted/beat. Does anyone make this piece? I'm looking for both left and right. Is the part the same for the later floors?

I was going to try and fix them but they're hammered. Thanks for any help!

Talk to Mika Virtanen at http://restorationpanels.com/

or Steve Hook at Hooky's Panel Shop http://www.hookyspanelshop.com/

Steve has made new ends for those parts on my '46.

Wolfsburg West has come generic ones. Maybe you could use pieces to rebuild yours?

On splits there is a framenumber on the lefthandside triangle. Not sure about zwitters/ovals though..? I'd say up to June -55?

Thanks for all the replies! I hadn't noticed any numbers on the left side, but I wasn't looking too closely for them either. That piece in the pic off the Czech site is close but those older ones were a different shape, I guess. They don't contour in at the tunnel either. I will try calling Wolfsburg West and see if they have any available like Johnshenry has. I was just reading his post there (a great resource for fixing an old chassis!). This is an early 53 chassis so it's basically the same.

I got them from WW. They normally don't sell them separately but they made an exception. I grafted the chassis number from the old into one of the new ones.

The number on the outrigger is the framenumber and is not the same as vin-number(=chassisnumber)
