Default Replacing Trunk Pan

I am going to replace the trunk pan in my 67 LeMans. I am looking for a recommendation for a source. I know there are different suppliers for this but need to find one that is a quality product. Thanks.

Also any removal and installation tips would be welcome.

If the supports are good can I just weld in repair panels in the trunk?

Default 67 trunk pan install

I used the full trunk pan from our host Ames...it's actually for a 66 but it can be made to work for 67. You need to use your existing trunk drop downs, or at least the back 6"-8". The trunk latch brace will need to be shortened. The 2 holes for the taillight harness will need to be filled and then redrilled in the correct for 67 location. When that's all done you will need to pull the rear edge up to meet the tail panel, I clamped and screwed it in place before welding.
