Hey guys I am curious what could I expect to pay to have a whole truck pan cut out and a new one welded in also (2) inside floor panels cut out and replaced as well. I am looking for a ball park figure. Thanks

$100 a panel???

$300 for the whole job...??

:eek: Give me the name of your body guy.... I've got plenty of work for him.

Probable looking at about $1000 - $1500 for the whole job..

We wouldnt charge you that much...

I did both my quarters in 2 days...Cut them off and welded back on...

I just drop by the body shop to get a price on cutting out and install a whole floor pan in my 68 malibu.
I should get a price on monday, with them suppling the floor pan.

I let you know

sometimes its not about making money but rather doing something for someone that shares the same interests as you...

where at in the northeast i might have some work for you PM me back thanks.:yes:

thanks guys for all the info and help I paid around 200 for all the parts and the guys is charging me 450.00 I thought it was abit pricey because the first guy i spoke with told me 200.00 but he could get to it right away so i was like man that a big difference so i wanted to put it out there and see some opinions.

hey guys im back at chevelle tech after a four year sabatical. my 68 chevelle is needing a trunk pan swap out, im wondering price for labor, as i have the pans allready, some of these prices sound real cheap and some as high as ten grand, any ballparks? thanks, tim

Just cut out and weld in new $500. Now, if you are talking whole job from start to finish, smooth the welds, body work, urethane caulk, epoxy primer, painting, maybe sandblast adjacent panels so you have clean metal to work with, then could be $1500 or more. But that would return it to original condition. Just depends what you want.

For the price many would charge you, you could get a welder and as a beginner probably do the job in couple of weekends. It's not that hard, it's rewarding and will save you hundreds of dollars in the future as you do similar projects yourself. Please consider it. Many on this site have links or pics to their projects which show how it's done. If you just don't want to do it, that's cool, but don't do pay someone to do it because you think it's too hard. Someone with decent mechanical skills and a few tools plus welder can do it.

just got my estimate.
to cut out the floor pan clean everything up weld in new pan, clean welds seal welds, and prime and paint whole floor 800.00.
I drop the car off on thurday and he will have it back next week
