Thank you my friend. I try to upload at least once a week. Right now though, these floor pans are taking a lot of time with little content. I'll get it though.

Were the pie cuts necessary in order to get that floor to sit on the subframe? I have a '72 Grabber. I want to use the mustang full side pans instead of the aftermarket patches. I'm guessing you seam welded the slits you cut into the pan, but I am curious if they could sit down without the cutting. I know you used the mustang seat pedestals, and I know you use a bench seat. I must have overlooked the part where you made your own seat brackets. I have gone through your floor and interior videos. I know you made those brackets because the floor sits so low too. I am considering that route, but I am using buckets from a '73 mustang. My choice of seat is different since the '71-'73 mustangs had different seat brackets and floor pan. I bet I could use seat brackets from a first gen mustang on those seats, but I am worried they will sit too low. Did you use the original Maverick seat brackets on your bench seat? Did the seat sit annoyingly low? I have so many questions about the mustang floor and pedestals in the Maverick. My floor is the only rust on my Grabber, and I think I'm going to have a lot of welding with the full side pans or the patches that are available. I think the patches are made from a thin gauge metal, but I haven't received a clear answer on that either. I appreciate any info you can throw my way.
The majority of the work I had to do on my mustang floor pans was my own fault. 1st time doing a maverick ! Some of the pie cuts were necessary, some were just me being lazy and not preparing ahead of time. My floors were GONE.... it was so frustrating because I was trying to save all of the maverick integrity. My brackets were made with 3" channel cut as pedestals. Holes drilled in them. It worked out pretty good. But no where near factory settings.
If I had to do it again, (it all depends how bad my floor was). I would do the full mustang floor pan with the seat mounts and the hump. Why you say ? You have to think about the carpet,,, I used a maverick carpet.....I had to glue it down. Nowhere near a good fit, I chopped it up also. That is something else to think about. I wish you good luck my friend, in any direction you go.
@@rockinrongarage exactly on the carpet fitting the floor. I would do the same thing and match them to each other as well. My floors are bad right at the bottom of the toe pads, both front feet pans, and both rear feet pans. It is originally a bench seat car, and the seat "humps" are in decent shape. There's a fair amount of welding that would need to be done no matter if I used the patch panels. Also, if I used the patch panels, I would still need to weld in the bucket seat mounts that were used on the Maverick floors. This decision is driving me nuts because I could spend the money on the patches and not have any issues with the seats sitting too low. The full length mustang pans are the route that I want to go because I know those are stronger and thicker stamped out steel as opposed to metal sheets that have been bead rolled to match the Maverick floor pattern. Really, the only thing holding me back is the seat height and how I'm going to resolve that problem. I appreciate the info and super quick reply. I like what you have done with your Maverick, and it sounds great!
I have grown up around these cars, literally. They are so dang fun to drive.
You know the bad part about.... I just cut up a 72 4 door and the floor pan is solid as hell !!! I wish I had it when I was doing mine. They say it is 10 inches longer behind the front seat....that ain't shit to shrink !!! If you live close to northwest Indiana, I have it on marketplace for 200 measly dollars. LOL it's complete with full rockers attached.
@@rockinrongarage I have a '74 Grabber for parts, but the floor is also gone in it. I'm in Northeast Arkansas. I have been known to make 24 hour trips though. I had to buy the parts car if I wanted the '72 Grabber. The '72 is so damn solid! It had to have sat in a field or yard on flats because that's the only rust on the car. Every single panel, both torque boxes, rockers, quarters, etc are all solid. I will be ready to start working on it soon. Keep up the good work. Yours is well done. Tastefully modified.
