23rd series floor pan braces
#1

Hi,

I need to install some new floor pan supports which att ac to the inner rocker. I cannot find a part number in my Packard parts book. Some are ok but others are shot. I know I need to install new inner rocker panels also. The inner rockets can be made or bought and made to fit. However, is there a source of the braces? That we be difficult for me to fabricate.

An approximately part is shown in the photos, although for a non-Packard of a newer car.


Thanks!

AFAIK, the only place that makes any kind of Packard replacement metal is Classic 2 Current but for the kind of braces you need if you cannot make them I suspect you will have to find something universal or from another brand that you can modify to fit.

Find someone with a parts car and a saws-all!

I'd check with Mike Dulinski (MN), Ross (MD) or Gerry (CA). I would think either of them would have a carcass car willing to give one up

Oh boy, been there done that!

I ended up salvaging some bits and pieces so I could make a couple of ends. I need to do inner and outer rockers as well, but I'm chopping away on a rear fender and liner right now.
