    I am looking for a full floor and inner rockers from front to back on a Hupmobile 417W. This is essentially a 1934 Ford Fordor with a different rump. Does anybody make full floors for the Fordor?

    I have some videos of the Hupmobile here plus some videos on metal working tools:


    Cheers, Steve

    I'd bet the frame is a Hupmobile frame and the floor might be totally different to match. You might want to find a real 34 Ford and compare before you buy parts that won't work for you.

    I've recently seen some nice looking 34 Ford subrail and floor assemblies on Instagram somewhere. Can't remember who the guys were that made them, but I think they were in the east somewhere. If you find your Hup uses Ford undersides, maybe I could find those floors again.

    Floor is same as ford there is spacers between the hup chassis and body
     

  5. A couple of suggestions:
    Tom Bay. RJ interprises in Arkansas Kansas.
    Steve McPherson, McPherson Auto Sales, in McPherson Kansas

    Paul Bradley. USED TO. Slooooooow. Might find some in a dealer's stock.
     
  6. Try Jesse at Old Soul Hot Rods in Leroy, N.Y.

    The Old Soul one is the recent place. Their product looks good in photos.

    I see that some floors are flat and seem to bend along the frame rails up over the rear axle. Others have the step for the rear seat and also have the tunnel for the driveshaft. Assuming I was dealing with a Ford frame, would these floors both fit the same car? I have a Fordor so I need the step in the back for the seat to work, just trying to understand what I'm seeing.

    I've not had any luck finding Steve McPherson, McPherson Auto Sales, in McPherson Kansas. Does he live in the McPherson Building on McPherson Street? :D Sorry, not to joke, but Google didn't give me any good hits on his name.
