    I believe your only chance on finding an original Murray floor is to find one from a 3-window, Victoria, or B-400. Anyone putting one of these bodies on an aftermarket frame with an X-member is probably replacing the original floor with a flat floor.

    How do you identify the difference in the floors? I
    Have one but not sure what it is out of.

    I think you are proably right.I`m suprised ,Brookville didn`t go the next step to make their 3w coupe a real reproduction of Henry`s deluxe coupe!It`s the first thing i look at to verify if a 3w is the real thing!

    I agree, I've always thought their floor was the correct one. Could someone post photos of a real one and the Brookville so we can all learn what is different. Bob :)

    A 3 window floor is unique to the 3 W and very hard to locate in good shape. A Vicky is different yet.

    Brookville made the logical choice by using the flat Roadster/5 Window floor. More often than not their body will become a hot rod and be mounted on an after market frame. I put a roadster floor in my 3W for clearance. The original floor was rotted out and not worth saving plus the foot wells in the trunk were useless and interfered with the suspension and exhaust.

    Here is a real 3 window floor and a new one built by Steadfast. As stated above, most hot rod chassis require a flat floor. A stock 3 window in this shape would be one you would want to save for a restoration and the other one is pure art with a master craftsman behind the bead roller.

    And the rare RPU rumble seat option...haha. I had access to both a 3W and Vicky floorpan to get ideas for my floorpan.

    My floor is shown above and I have an extra floor, just wondering what it would be worth. Here's a pic of my car, cause I don't know how to post it under my name, like I did at the hamb. G-man

    I don't know the condition of your floor but I sold a mint one for $550 about at the LARS. I would say between $500 -700 would be a fair price if you needed a stock floor.

    Here are floors from 3 different 32 3W Cpe’s. I lined them up to give you an idea what different section look like.
