Yes the 67 floor pan will work on your 66.
as for one piece ? Do you mean the whole floor ? If so the answer no. You have. The
3 piece a side flavor and the 1 piece per side. Have never used the one piece per side pans and am not sure how far they go up the toe area ? so if you 66 needs rust repair in that area you will need two pieces per side.

Thanks for the reply.
this is my first car to fix up. The car was a dragster and all the floors have been cut on and peaced together. I probable have bit off a little more then I wonted. But it will take a lot of time and work. But I'll be able to say that I did it all myself.:)
One more thing. I'm looking at putting a new Chassis under it. Would it be better to remove the body before replacing the floor pans or after. Thanks again.

Tommy. I have replaced the front part of these floors on a 66. The outer sides run right above the chassis. If you would like to weld both sides, its almost necessary the be of the frame.

Tommy - do a web search for "auto rotisserie" or "auto rotator". I think I'm leaning toward this one (http://www.cjengineering.com).
