Finally getting back to work on the Bugeye. Can anyone recommend a good source for a "trunk floor" and front floor sections? Any help will be greatly appreciated.
 
If you need front footwell floors, you need to buy the entire floor sections, left and right. There are cheaper versions $110 per side available on eBay and these are perfectly good if you just need just the front section.

Or, you can pay more and get the English supplied floors from Vic British, Moss and other vendors for $160 ish per side. See #8 in this link. I have used both for full floor replacements and like the quality of the VB / Moss floors better, although once welded in, not much difference.

If you just need the edge repair, these are available from Vic British as well for $60 per side, see #9 in link or I have a set you can have for $40 per side plus postage, will save you $20 per side.

VB also have the rear trunk floor section for $165, but Moss has the floor for $175 #28 in link and the closing panels for a whopping $32 per side.

You may also want to check AH Spares in the UK.

Boot panel GBP 62.50

Closing panel GBP 9.95 each (19.90)

Floors GBP 74.50 per side (149.00)

At current exchange rate @1.52 even with freight, this may be cheaper.

Cheers
