Just did a Google search under "falcon floor pans" and got some interesting hits.

Rock Auto, which advertisses on this board, lists pans for $50 (must be four panels at $50 each as the half panels used to cost way more).

Also got a link to another Falcon site:

fordfalcon2000.com

The New Millennium.... Falcon!.

Okay, so it is a rivial to this board but there is a COMPLATE photo coverage of replacing a 64 floor with one from a southern car forund in a junkyard. Looking through that sites links I found COMPLETE coverage of installing the T-5. Now I know where the new T-5 from my 85 Mustang is going when the Mustang is junked next year.

How did they connect the parts to the rear torque (a.k.a. "Berry") box?


PS - Floors were a seldom odered option for the early Falcons. That explains why so many today have no floors?

I take it the two tabs fit the side of the torque box? Looks very much like the factory installed connectors on the Aussie Falcon light commercial vehicles (ute and van) XL - XW series (1960 - 1971).

The set given to me were made by Crites Restorations but they duplicate the Detroit Steel Tubing units made for the factory backed 427 Comets of 1964. Tubing is straight and a plate welds to the bottom of the torque box and new rectangular tubing.

Thanks for posting the drawing, saves me from having to dig through my files for the info when it comes time to work under my car(s).
