    Which replacement trunk floor pan have you guys used? I see there is a lot of general pans out there for Abody’s but I hear a skylark has a different shape on the back of the pan then say a chevelle. Thanks for your help!

    Only pan you gonna get is a chevelle pan but I'd go with AMD

    I used a chevelle pan I think it turned out pretty good considering I never done this before

    These parts are from NPD for Chevelle, but see the application list...
    The 100 % trunk pan is correct until it comes up at the back of the trunk lid retainer, the everything is wrong. https://www.npdlink.com/product/floor-pan-rear-compartment-trunk-complete-21/143462/8290
    The complete passenger area floor pan IS correct, however. https://www.npdlink.com/product/flo...smission-tunnel-pre-punched-drain/170343/8288
    The more complete patch panel trunk pan is very good. https://www.npdlink.com/product/floor-pan-rear-compartment-trunk-extended-41/110654/8291
    but you will need the braces, etc.

    If you are doing a 70-72 Buick A-body and are replacing the entire pan with braces and everything then the pan to use is the 69 Chevelle pan from Dynacorn. It is absolutely beautiful, and is only different where it goes up to meet the tail light panel. It is the same where the trunk pan starts to go up towards the back of the car, and you cut the pan where it goes over the rear "L" shaped brace.

    Now this part can only be installed if you take the body off the frame, but it's perfect.

    Whatever you do DO NOT use a 70-72 Chevelle trunk pan. They are completely different at the rear and you will run into trouble.

    The 70 chvelle pan from AMD was really nice and it included the braces and all. As with all the others, the rear latch area is different. If yours in good shape, modification of the AMD panel is pretty easy and when done correctly nobody will be able to tell this was done.
