Has anyone replaced a full flirt pan in a 1975 ford elite and if so what floor pan is best to use. I would like to replace the whole pan

There is a black 72 on here (and recently listed for sale) that they had replaced the entire pan in 1 shot. As far as fitment goes, I am pretty sure (but not 100%) you can use 73-79 2 door Torino, Gran Torino, Montego (MX/GT), Elite. 77-79 Thunderbird/Cougar may work as well. I am not sure on 72 Torino.

To avoid any production variations, I would seek one the same year as my car, from any of the above models that fall into my year.

Good luck!

The hard part would be the seat support metal. If you could rework those or transfer them from something else, I think an aftermarket pan could be used.

I used '66 Mustang floor pans on my '73. Fabricated my own seat supports and didn't do a very great job, but it works.
