replacement floor pans?

anyone make replacement floor pans for our trucks?

i thought i was safe here in Oregon where they don't use salt so i never really checked.

but yesterday i found out that my gas pedal is no longer mounted to the floorboard... and it doesn't look pretty at the mount. too many heat shields to look from underneath and i'm hesitant to pull the rubber floor covering just yet. i want new sheet metal ready to go in when i pull the floor and realize i'm 'Flinstoning'.

Al-no one that I have found makes a replacement floor panel.
I did cut a section out at the Sherwood pick and pull..
we can head out sometime (am working this weekend)
I have got a cordless sawzall and grinder that works pretty good for this sort of thing...

there is an '80 and an '83 at the one on columbia blvd. sherwood and foster didn't have any 1st Gen's but I met we could make just about anything work..isn't that what they make BFH's for
I do have that section I cut out of one but but I want the gas pedal. my gas pedal is doing the same thing but not rusted...forgot about it till you mentioned yours--mine fell off on that run at brown's camp. I was doing the bug roller pedal the whole time.

You can have that section if you want it--it is kind of fun cutting a floor out though

weird that nobody repro's them at all. i know i can get them for wagoneers all day long but not these trucks?

you don't need the floor section for the trekker? i might have to take you up on that.

and it turns out i'm not working this weekend so i will be working all day monday, doh!
