    Welcome to the MMB. Most people make the aftermarket Mustang floor pan work. It will take a little trimming but it can be done

    :Welcome: from Atlantic Canada! Have you checked the cowl for leaks by pouring a bucket of water down the cowl grille? It sounds like your torque boxes are going to need work, as well as the floors. As others have said, 1st gen Mustang pans will work and are about the closest thing we'll ever see to Maverick pans, IMHO.

    Got any pics of your car?
