Curator's pick: Cleco Fastener Kit
Most guys try to hold pans in place with heavy magnets or vice grips, but Clecos are the only way to get a tight, gap-free fit before you burn that first tack weld. It's the difference between a floor that sits flush and one that creates a moisture-trapping ledge.
⚠ Worth knowing: Replacement pans rarely drop in perfectly; expect to spend time trimming and beating the edges with a dollie to match the 1967-1972 floor stampings exactly. If you aren't prepared to cut back into clean, solid metal beyond the visible rust, the seam sealer won't save the panel from failing again in two years.
