Boots Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 Upon further looking yours does not have the cross bracing, I guess it automatically comes with the one I got Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacob Posted December 14, 2013 Author Share Posted December 14, 2013 The NPD price was $ 444.95 with out braces ... the braces I have are in good shape they just need to be cleaned up. Has anyone else done a full floor replacement? I haven't seen any videos or pictures of a Monte getting a full floor replacement just Chevelles.

monte70car Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 Jacob you can use the video's and pictures from the Chevelle having the full floor pan replaced as it's the same pan. One issue you might have is getting the pan inside the car in one piece you might have to cut it on top of the tunnel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KLASSIK1 Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 go to our koniksklassiks.com , we have replaced every single panel on roughly 20 or more first gen montes , the pan pictured has the chevelle under seat pan , if you plan on putting it in in one piece you will need to remove the side crash braces big job , there are several versions out on the market we sell Dynacorn,CHL ,and AMD sheet metal all are good quality really depends on application what pan you want to use , we are currently working on a 70 SS floor trunk wells and NOS quarter replacement as well as full tail pan , the 1970 1/2 Z28 we completed a couple years ago had over 70 percent of the sheetmetal replaced and is currently a top show car , just take your time and measure before you cut then measure again then brace where you need , we do not brace cars for sheetmetal replacement only, they do not move , if you remove rockers and floor braces and crash braces you will need to brace and jig the car  Leo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacob Posted December 18, 2013 Author Share Posted December 18, 2013 If only GM could have taken the time to paint and seal the tops before putting the vinyl tops down it would have made a big difference in how much rust they have in 40 years. And people leaving them out under trees in front of a four car garage or behind a big carport. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
