I’m replacing the trunk pan in my 70 SS http://members.cox.net/renslove70ss/trunk.htm
OPG has a 7 piece set for around 300.00. The thing that I’m concerned about is I have 4 inches off good metal from behind the back seat (see pictures in the link). Do any of the replacement floor pans go back that far? What is the best method for welding them back in & lastly where is a good source for body mounts? A whole kit would be great.

I posted a reply on Chevyboy's question before I realized you had written a question here too. You have to be careful which pan you order. Some don't go as far up as you cut. I bought the 2 piece one from NPD. It goes forward quite a ways. I can measure it for you if you want me to when I get home from work today. I haven't installed them, but they are lying in place in my trunk. I still have to cut the old one out yet.
