Floor Pan Replacement Question

I will be replacing the floor in my '68 convertible and wanted to get some opinions on whether to use full length left and right halves or a one piece floor? I am planning on reusing the original floor braces and the rockers are solid. The pictures really don't show it but the passenger's front floor is full of pinholes and the drivers side is thin. As can be seen from the one picture the previous owner did a real hack job on the floor brace. The section of floor under the rear seats is solid as are the toe kicks.

Thanks, Eric

I believe the floor in my 72 is one piece. I had rust accross the center floor support. The drivers side had rust where your heel rest also. So I patched the passenger area accross the floor support and used a complete half section on the dirvers side. I also replaced the center floor support. I have pics in the major builds and project section.
