Rust repair panels for '54 Olds????

I've done a bit of searching, but would appreciate the wisdom of the HAMB....

Any recommendation for a good sheet metal vendor for Olds patch panels?

I need complete floor pans for a 54 olds, as well as inner and outer rockers and at least lower quarters.

Think of what you'd need for the typical car that's been dragged out of a field...I'm trying to replace a lot of rusted out parts.

I was originally planning on fabbing up all the panels, since it seems like there's very little offered up for purchase, but before I take all the time and effort required for that, I thought I'd see if there was a HAMB friendly vendor that I could do business with...

Thanks for the help!

 

Anybody have any experiences with C2C?

I am going to be doing the same thing here on my olds and was thinking of starting a similar thread when i came across this in a search. I found these two places http://www.forwhatyouneed.com/floor boards.htm & http://www.classicfabrication.com/
they look like they have some good products, but really don't know much about them, so if anybody has any info on them also.

 

I called C2C when I was looking for floor boards for my '37 Buick. They sell pans on eBay but they only have a generic image of a floor pan on their eBay ads and on their web site. I called to find out if they would email a picture of the actual part but the person I talked was kind of evasive, IMO, and said they could sent a picture of the actual part for some reason.

My neighbor bought pans for his '51 Hudson from C2C recently and they looked really close to the factory floor in his car, all of the beads seemed to line up really nice.

The owner of C2C posts on the HAMB, he responded to a post a while back involving EMS so maybe he'll post here.

herea the link to the place where i got the parts

I used Classic Fabrications floor pans on my '50 Olds. Good fit and the metal seemed a bit heavier than others I'd seen.

 

Does anyone know if classic fabrication's parts are made in the USA?

Or if any of the patch panels are, for that matter? I see that Classic Fab is located in Ma, so at least I'd be dealing with a US company-I'm just curious where the parts are stamped.

I'll see if I can get a break from work while they're open (I'm on west coast) and give them a call.

 

can you post some photos of your floor pans? then i will make some comments to see if we have anything that might fit, also tell us exactly what madel , body style etc.

the ems guy

 

hey batt when my customer talked to the guy at classic fab he said all parts are made in his shop .

 

here is a few pics of mine a 54 olds 98 2 door. its not in to bad a shape i think i can get away with just doing the drivers side floor pan.

 

i just put some classic fab floor pans in my 57 desoto. They do make them up in their shop, the panels are pretty nice pieces. They are good heavy gauge metal. Iknow this is not a olds, i have a few of those but here is a pic of the desoto pans tacked in place. i would do business with them again.

 

Thanks for the help everybody!

Sorry I've been absent from the HAMB, but after the last upgrade, my account was locked out (got it all figured out now...phew).

Sounds like some good options here-thanks again for the great tips.

I like that there's a made in the US option-my olds started out domestic, and I want to keep it that way.
