1940 United Pacific Floors in a 1936 Ford

1940 United Pacific Floors in a 1936 Ford
In this video i get the new floors! as you can tell by the title they are United Pacific floors and they are NICE! I get the floors mocked up and the 1936 rear inner panel mocked up.
I searched everywhere for the question " do 1940 floors fit under a 1936?" and found nothing. I hope this helps people with the same problem of finding nice OEM style floors for their car.

Glad you let your little apprentice help unbox your new floor (toy). Looks like that guy is going to be a great helper. I expect the TIG welding lessons to begin before kindergarten.

Wow, what a beautiful floor pans! I didnt know that 35 to 40 share same floors, minus the rear section. Keep up the good work!

[@aussiejas6599]

You have the best helper Travis.

[@harrycatrell1471]

Thanks for sharing, Travis! Excellent job on the rear of the floorpan! 'Loved your little helper at the beginning of the video! If Shepard is anything like his father, there's no way you're gonna be able to keep him outta the shop! What a wonderful problem to have! Enjoy! Be safe! Bro Harry

In spite of the slight differences between this new pan and the original ‘36 floor, once it’s together NOBODY is going to notice. This new pan is going to make a much nicer car.

My old man had one of those spot welders at his body shop. All you do is put the two leads where you what the spot welds and pull the trigger. It creates two spot welds at once. Think of it almost like a + and - on a battery, the two leads complete the circuit when you pull the trigger. It works fantastic for replacing panels. You don't have to have the leads on both sides of the panel so you can do blind spot welds and hard to reach places. I messaged you on Facebook if you need more information on the spot welder just DM me . Love watching your excellent work. Keep them coming

That little guy doing his Dad impression with the hammer on the frame rails was awesome. I was surprised to see how much of the '36 inner tail piece that you cut away, I was expecting to keep as much of that as possible, and the end result looks great. That's the difference when you know what you're doing (unlike me)...

[@geneyusko5975]

You can use both leads on one side , just make sure there is no gap or it will burn a hole , used one about 40 years ago that was before mig and tig if you burn a hole fill it up ,easy .

[@konradweniger3141]

I have one it work great both on same side is correct no gap between top and.bottom sheets so press pretty hard make sure tips are clean they make a.pencil sharper to clean and shape tips or sandpaper if not smooth we used weld paint thinner cans over rust holes for the auto auction hardly used Bondo worked for used car flipper.

Came out amazing, floors are fantastic. This car is gonna move fast

[@mnwoodshop3877]

Years ago a Bodyshop put a new quarter panel on a Camaro for me.They used a spot welder and put the leads side by side.

[@johnkranz4004]

Travis really nice floors looks Great

[@Ecosse57]

looking sweet! assuming the spot welder works the technique of doing them side by side makes sense. looking forward to seeing it.

[@pappabob29]

Floors do look great!!! We tried using some of that "weld through" primer on my son's 57 Chevy (one of those spare tire well covers) and had nothing but trouble with the paint burning and contaminating the TIG welding. Ended up sanding it off so the rosettes would work. Is there some kind of "secret" we didn't know about?? Looked like you had no problem at all. Of course, we weren't doing "beads". lWe were doing rosettes welding the flat panel where the well used to sit in the recess that was formed in the trunk floor.

[@staypositive6984]

Nice bro👍

[@scottwilliams997]

Where did you order floor from? Great work. Keep it up.

[@davemoulding8799]

You better prep that rear panel inner surface before welding it on to protect from rust I hope

[@calvinspears9244]

Did you make the rocker panels for the 36 or buy them, I looked everywhere cannot find? Would like to know ? Thank you very much you do good work, enjoy your channel.

[@RACGARAGE]

They are 1940 UPAC subrails. I think that’s what you mean by rockers

[@lloydgreen4091]

Yo👍 Yo👍Yo👍

[@BoxcarsGarage]

Hey Travis...is that old 36 floor available? I got a rough 35 coupe the other day and was just thinking...
