Need some floor sections for a 1966 Toronado

I need the big rectangular area between the raised seat area and the toeboard as well as the area behind the front seats back to the spare tire well. I am willing to take high res photos and forward them to anybody showing exactly the areas I need.

Thanks,
Steve

Steve, where are you located? Your city/state will help us know if shipping will kill a deal or not. John

I've got a couple Toro's in a storage yard that I plan to dismantle, one 1966 that's clean and complete but has been sitting since the early 1990's, then a 1967 that's the same except it has rust in the body. I've seen a couple other guys selling Toro parts in the parts for sale section, if you've not contacted them yet you might see what part of the country they're in. John

No one is selling floor sections that I've seen. I'll be at the Nationals looking around in a couple of weeks. Are you willing to part with any good floor sections from your two cars. I will bear the burden of shipping costs.

Hi Steve
I'm not sure when I'll have room here at the house to bring them home, but yes I would be willing to cut portions of the floorboard to ship you. Please let me know if you find something and I'll keep you in the loop as to when I get these cars home. Hopefully by the end of July, as there's one other car that I've promised to cut parts out of for another guy. On a slightly different note, I'm selling parts on ebay from a 1968 Delta Custom I'm dismantling. One of the items up right now is a floor shift tilt, tele, rim blow wheel steering column. I don't know if you have one of the rare Toro's with bucket seats, and I don't really know if this is the same column, but it's unusual for sure.

Thanks John. My Toro dosen't have bucket seats, my 442 does, but that car is all finished. I'll send you some photos if you like of my floor sections showing where my weak spots are. My car apparently sat outside for a long time before I got it and it has some rot in the floors. Do you have an email address I can send the photos too?

Thanks,
Steve

Steve, I sent my email address through a private message. I trust all the Olds guys out there, but not the sleeze that keep posting on the introduction page. I don't want to invite someone to fill my inbox with spam John

Hey Wes
Cool, so what is it another 1967? I'm still thinking of getting the yellow 1967 and the 77 442 I've got in storage home and into drivers then selling them to someone else to finish. When I get the yellow one home I'll check out the seal behind the pass side kick panel. The 1974 442 clone should also be an easy project to make run and sell. Then I'll only have six cars to dismantle John

yeah another 67 hit in the front passenger side might be a bent frame but core support looks intact seems only where the upper contol arm might be out of whack........ still need to find a 66 the only year to own as far as I`m concerned....... but then again I haven`t had time to do anything on the post car....body is sanded down new floors are ready to be welded ...still sitting in the corner waiting to be installed HAHAHAHA

Hi Steve, yes I did. I don't have the car at my house yet, but as soon as I do I'll get in touch and see if you still need these parts. The 1966 I've got has the same color paint and the 1967 looks like the same interior as yours! To check out photos of it go to the link:
