Great floor pans. Plan on delivery times of TEN days to TWO YEARS, if you're lucky. Do a "search" titled: Bradley floor pans. DD

Paul Bradley makes an outstanding product however, depending on what you need, and what's "in stock", you may have a long wait. As I recall, it took about 6 months for the delivery of the '39 LZ floor pans I bought from him. As I said, they are outstanding and I was not in a big rush to get them.

Cancel your order and call EMS automotive. They have what you need. I just finished putting in a front floor pan in my 46 coupe today and it went well.

Thanks for the info: everybody.

Now to the next question: Who else would make available a transmission cover pan for a 1940 tudor Sedan.
(i dont think i would want to wait too long, because at 78 years old i may croak before delevry)

Hah! You're a young'in. A friend of mine, Bob Vollmer, bought his WWII Army jeep as a 30-year old Navy veteran in 1946.

He still drives it today.

The trans cover pan is a reproduced item that you can get from Carpenter , Drake, or most V-8 Vendors.

EMS is okay if you plan on fitting and if authenticity is of no concern. If a guy is restoring a car, he'd be well advised to wait on Bradley and run from EMS.

I have bought 5 sets of 1940 floor pans from Paul,. I got great service and the product is excellent.
Unfortunately owning a fat fendered does not give us the same playing field as owing an A or 32, when in you just ring up and get it , YESTERDAY.

So we have to rely on a very few die hards that make things in a limited way, without the big bucks or resources.
