 Posted: Mon Jun 25, 2018 1:54 pm Post subject: Ghia pan in type 3 - front curve |
 |
|
This subject has been covered. But I can't see anywhere if the front curve is the same.
My original floor is so rotten that I can't tell when comparing both.
I'm a bit stressed to weld and the adapt the Ghia pan in place and see after that the curve would not be in line with the body...
The side of the original floor is not usuable.

You might ask Michael at ISP West (he's on here regularly) if they offer the front section. If so, that might help you get that area fixed, so you could use the ghia pan halfs.
Your only other options are good used, and Gerson floor pans.

We might. Your best bet is to call the shop directly or email [email protected]. I'm no longer onsite so I don't have the ability to check real quick.

| Thanks guys. As I already have the Ghia pan in my hands, I guess I’ll be creative and adapt it. Certainly more challenging and time consuming,but at this point we have time to do so... shipping from the west coast is expensive and exchange rate is also playing against me... |
