    Hi there,
    I'm having a bit of a challenge navigating this forum.
    I'm helping a friend with his 1967 Fairlane wagon, and we're in need of aftermarket floorpans.
    I am a certified welder, not a station wagon enthusiast, so I'm not really qualified to weigh in, unless the conversation is about welding.
    I see that my initial question has been viewed several times, but only one reply, with the text, "Introduction".... I don't know what that means..??
    I'm not able to post in classifieds, as I need, I guess, 5 previous posts....
    I only have one question though....
    Any advice....??
    Thanks in advance, for your knowledge and insight.
    Best,
    Thomas

    Try in the station wagons & parts wanted section. Sorry I can't help with that one but maybe one of the Ford guys will see it in that section and point you in right direction. Good luck with your search.

    You didn't introduce yourself before you started asking questions, not a good thing to do around here.:rolleyes:

    It could be that nobody knows the answer too.
    I doubt that anybody makes '67 Fairlane wagon floor pans.
    Boneyard, somebody stripping one, adapt sedan or hardtop pans if they make them and fabricate what you can't get.
    Wagons can be a real pain to get wagon specific parts for, "Fits all but station wagons" is a term seen often when you're looking for parts.

    Howdy Thomas,

    Like Blue said.....
    There seems to be very little in the way of re produced parts for Fairlane wagons in 66/67 that I have found. I reckon you are in the box seat with your metal work skills, and to fabricate some might be the best bet.

    Good luck mate, keep us posted.

    Thanks Fellas...

    Turns out that C2C is a good source fpr 1967 Fairlane Wagon floor pans.
    The Fairlane Sedan toe boards and front pans are a good fit... it's the rear pans that need modification due to wheel base. The wagons and convertibles bring the challenge. I just got a set of rear pans for the sedan, and I'll massage to fit.
    I'm completely new to the forum experience, and I appreciate those with patience for the newcomer.
    The users with less patience.... well, the world needs your example as well.
    All the very best, and thanks again..!!
