Dont forget to check ebay. Every so often you'll find floor pans for sale on ebay.

Don't pay the markup that the above locations will charge you, just go straight to the source! Talk to Charlie Osborne at Zed Findings in Canada, he's the guy that makes them and supplies the others like MSA, etc.

Time vs. Money

Charlie makes a quality product and has a solid reputation in the Z community.

I don't think they have floor pans, but for rust treatment kits check out http://www.por15.com and you can call for a free cataloge 1-800-457-6715. They have quite a selection of rust treatment materials.

Funny I don't think Charlie makes them at all. I called for a quote for pans and rails for my '78 and he was out of stock on the pans and was expecting some in around April 12th

I installed the floor pans from Zedd Findings , Charlie Osborne's company's name. They are first rate in every way. Do not remove the old floors until you have the new ones in hand . I recommend that you do treat any and all rusted metal with POR-15 also . Be sure to follow the preparation for the por paint to the letter and use the marine clean and metal ready that they say to use. I have seen others try and save a little money and use other stuff and the POR simply pealed off. If prepared properly it is the toughest finish you have ever seen. NOT recommended for a finish as it is UV sensitive and is so hard it is difficult to sand . If you want to spray color over the por paint you MUST do so when the por is still tacky . Otherwise the nothing will stick to it after it is cured other than Ticoat primer.

Try These Guys. They have awesome frame rails and floor pans. I haven't used them personally, but they're said the be the best fit and require no mods.
