Rock Auto floor pans, who has 'em???

[low_kota]

I am looking for floor pans for my 74 swinger and Rock Auto seems to have the best deal. Has anyone used them and would you recommend them? I need to replace all four pieces.

I got the frt. driver side floor panel through them for my 68 cuda. OEM thickness steel. It had 2 slots about 5" by 1/2" cut into the top of the section for reasons unknown to me.

http://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopar/showthread.php?t=111522&page=5 I used them for the front sections. Not bad really they take some fitting but the cost of both shipped is less then just one from other places. There not a laydown direct fit they do take some fitting but almost any pan you put in will.

I looked at Rock to try and find the pans you need, I couldnt find them to compare prices. Look at this link to Auto Body Specialists. I just got pans from them and was very pleased with the quality. There is also a link to my floor pan install over the past week or so...

Thanks for the fast responses guys, you are awesome!

The pans at rock auto are $51.79 each which are $30 - $40 cheaper each than at autobodyspecialt. So far it sounds like Rock Auto is the way to go since they will be about $140 less all together. From searching around the forum it seems like the pans from autobodyspecialt are better, but the ones from Rock Auto do have a decent fit. Unless anyone has had any bad experiences with the Rock Auto pans I think I will go ahead and get them.

not trying to hi-jack your thread, but has anyone used the 1/4 panels from rock auto?

That's a good question, I will need those down the road too...

Well as far as the fit, yes, Autobody Specialists pans were VERY nice, but alot more cash. If the rock pans are close, then you are good, they are easy to manipulate to what you need them to be during fitment. So it sounds like they are your best bet, I wish I could hve found them for the 64 as cheap!

Best part is check the shipping from Rock auto its cheap. The pans are a guide and a general fit thats it. You will have to cut, trim, and massage them to fit. But they do work.

$219 shipped for all 4 after a 5% discount!

Dang, could have got an original pan in one piece, for about the same price.

IIRC Rock auto sheet metal parts are from Sherman.

Not after shipping. Keep in mind that I live in MO and almost any parts car within driving range is going to be rusted out...

Rob (Crackedback) sells body parts from cars he scraps. He has a full pan I believe removed at the spot welds. I bought on from him very reasonable and CLEAN

 

[low_kota]

If that's the case Rob PM me a price shipped to 63114 for the complete pan. I'm not dead set on buying from Rock Auto and would rather put some money in the hands of a FABO member... It would take a week or two to come up the money all at once since I was planning on buying the individual pieces in pairs to spread out the cost.

I used the rock auto for the drivers side and had no real problem, just normal fitting stuff.

I put Rock Auto (Sherman) front floors in my dart sport, last year, they werent perfect but did work out fine, it was much better than hammering out metal patches for the floor

 

[low_kota]

It looks like I will be using the rock auto floor pans. My wife bought them for me for fathers day! I will have detailed pics and reviews in my build thread whenever I get them in.
