53 Ranch Wagon floors

[PTaylorTBK]

Does anyone have information on a place or person that can provide the full coverage floor mats for the 53 I'm working on? Originally the vehicle had one piece that covered the floor from under the front seat and up the fire wall. The other went from under the front seat to under the back seat.
Any suggestions you can give will be greatly appreciated.

To the best of my knowledge no one make the front and rear floor pans, EMS makes very good floor patch panels. HRP

Do you want floor mats or the carpets. For carpets try Stock Interior or Auto Custom Carpets (ACC Carpets)

Noone makes floor mats like used at the factory. The original floor mats were one piece from the fire wall through to the back seat. I had a very rough 53 fordor sedan at one time with the remains of the factory floor mat and it was once piece. I asked a friend who remembers these cars from new and he verified this was what Ford did. If you bought replacement mats they came two, front and rear separate.

In the case of your wagon I suspect you will need to purchase the front mat that is available reproduction (not 100% copy of factory mat, but it is what you can get) and make your own rear seat mat.

Per a post from EMS on the 52-59 social board they will have rear floor patch panels by the end of April

Also Classic Fabrication makes floor boards for 52-54 Fords. No idea about quality or fit, etc.

Thanks for the info. I will look into it.

Would the front piece for a wagon be different than a sedan or coupe?

I bought one from Carpenter for my 53 sedan:
Floor Mat - Rubber - 1952-54 Ford Car Part #: BA-7013000

For the rear I used a bulk roll and cut to fit:

PTaylor,

I restored a ‘53 Ranch Wagon some time ago, and all I had was the rear mat. I was fortunate enough to be able to salvage it. It is simply a big moulded sheet of pebble grain rubber, with no other moulded-in features. So if you can find some pebble grain rollstock, you might be able with a heat gun and some weights to get a good reproduction. For the front mat, I used one I bought from Concourse Auto Parts. The only thing couldn’t replicate was the heavy vinyl over the rear wheel wells. I just painted them with rubberized paintable undercoating and then sprayed them with brown enamel. Finding the wood grain vinyl for the door panels and interior pieces took a lot of time. Happy to help with any other Ranch Wagon questions you might have.

Thanks Bruce. I likely will take you up on that offer.

I just received the front mat from Carpenter's today. Seems to fit in place, although I haven't worked to permanently install it yet. I'm going to try some of the suggestions
