Replacement Floor Pans for 1954-1970 VW Beetle Left & Right replacement pan halves 0.035″ (20 Gauge) thick sheet metal Includes jack mounts & seat mounts Brand New Replacement left and right side floor pans come complete with seat rails and jack mounts. These are complete length & width floor pan halves designed to fit 1954 through 1970 VW Beetles. Please note that purchasing front and rear patch sections will not make a complete floor pan. The 1946-1970 VW floor pan features inverted “L” seat rails, which are different from the “T” seat rails used in 1971-1972 models. Product Fitment 1954-1970 VW Beetle Installation Notes Installation will require cutting and welding the inner edge to the chassis, just like the original factory floor pans, while the outer edge bolts to the heat channel. The rear crossmembers and jack supports may not be welded to the floor pan. We aim to keep the price of the floor pans as low as possible, and loose pieces allow us to use a much smaller box. Many floor pan installers, including us, recommend using the original crossmember, as this saves time during installation by not having to remove it from the replacement pan. The process is covered in our floor pan installation video. A replacement pan to body seal and floor pan hardware are recommended whenever installing new floor pans. We also recommend replacing the seat rail bushings when installing new floor pans. Our Expert’s Take: If your pans are beyond repair, don’t waste your time with a cheap fiberglass patch, rivited in piece of sheet metal or worse, a piece of wood. If your pans are rusted any more than just beyond the battry tray, save the time and repair the pan properly with a complete pan half. It takes less effort to install a full half than to trim out, clean up, and seam weld in a patch panel. Installing new floor pans can be done with the body on the chassis but will require trimming and of course welding for proper installation.Sam Sam Mebane joined the team way back in the mid 90’s.

Notes on Sheet Metal: Virtually all sheet metal parts are sent with a black, sprayed-on, rust inhibitor. This is NOT a paint or a primer. The black paint that comes on most sheet metal itemsmust be removed before applying primer to the sheet metal. Expect scratches, minor dents, dings, and imperfections. These are considered normal. You will likely have to perform minor body work on any aftermarket sheet metal during the installation and restoration process. This is a universal issue across the entire classic car industry due to the nature of the product. Large dents would be considered excessive damage. All sheet metal is carefully inspected prior to shipping for any major dents. Any sheet metal that is received dented must be presented to the shippingcarrier for a damage claim, regardless of the condition of the box. Test fit the all sheet metal before painting. Once body work or paint work has been done to any sheet metal item, it can’t be returned! There are no exceptions!
