Floor Pan Install - 65 Dart Convertible

Here's the new pan setting in place. It was a challenge to get this in there with steering wheel in the way. The sides of the car lean in a bit so you have bend the pan at the hump to fit it down into the car. Not sure if you could do a one piece pan swap this big in a hard top.

Just sitting in place the new pan feels pretty strong. The old pan was really thin from the surface rust and the rear foot wells would oil can when you stood on them.

In this picture you can see the holes for the drain plugs in the front foot wells. I left these holes in tact on both pans so I can use them for alignment. I assume these holes are punched by the press when they stamp the pan so they should be in exactly the same place on both cars. If these line up, I have to be in the exact correct position. After I mark my new cut line on the old floor, they will get cut out of the old floor.
