Default Best supplier for 1930 Ford coupe trunk floor?

I just bought an "older restoration" 1930 Ford coupe last Saturday that has been sitting since 1990. The mice got into it and ruined the interior so I ripped out all the interior fabric in the car. Now that I can see every panel inside and out side, I am very pleased with the condition of the sheet metal. The only thing I want to replace is the trunk floor directly behind the seat-back and in front of the raised floor in the trunk. I dont know what that panel is called but I need one. I would like others advice on whose product to buy. Thanks in advance for any help.

Floor pan, should be able to find the section you're looking for.
Check all the vendors, compare quality (hint,hint American) and make your best decision, that should be a fun job.

There are only two manufacturers that I know of at the moment for pans, ...and both are US manufacturers. Neither one are made exactly as original, so it all depends on what your goals (-and skills) are.

If it's rusted out then a new one would be better than Flintstone's floors but if it only had a few pin holes or smaller rust outs, it could be patched. It all depends on the OPs equipment and skills capability. That panel is also part of the seat riser so it can make it difficult to work. The rumble seat platform is a bit easier to work.

If it's a previous restoration, it may already have a replacement trunk floor pan. I couldn't tell without looking at it.
