The Ford Barn

Orignal36 · 09-05-2021, 02:22 PM

My 1936 Fordor has a home made patch on the left front floor from previous owner. It goes from battery box forward to the wood floor board. I would like to clean this up if possible. Does anyone make a patch panel for this area?

Thanks for the help!

A jpg makes for a better post than a pdf.

Just a general note about Howell's. It usually works much better to order from them through eBay rather than directly; they seem to be much better at filling their eBay orders than others. It's probably because if it's not on eBay, it's not in stock. Then, you get to wait until they get around to making it.

Thank you all for the info. I was hoping to be able to just buy the patch panel vs the whole floor pan. I might have to make a better patch and weld it in place instead of bolts. It just seems if these cars rust out in front of the battery someone would make that smaller patch panel. Again, thank you all for the prompt reply and great information. This is a new learning experience for me. Glad to have this resource.

Howell's on flea-pay will at least get you in the ball park. Getting stuff from Bradley can take over a year if ever at all. The only recourse is to pound it out yourself.
