111-701-062M VW Beetle Floor Pan Half - Right Side (1958-1970)

VW Right Side Floor Pan Half – 111-701-062M

The 111-701-062M is a full-length replacement floor pan half designed for the passenger side (right) of the air-cooled Volkswagen Beetle. This is an essential structural component for any restoration involving "Fred Flintstone" floors or severe battery acid damage, which commonly occurs under the rear seat. Stamped from 21-gauge (approx. 1.0mm) steel, this pan provides the necessary rigidity for the vehicle's chassis while maintaining the original factory-style ribbing for strength and authentic appearance.

This specific version comes as a "complete" half, meaning the seat tracks (runners) and the jack support bracket are already accurately positioned and welded into place. It features the inverted "L" style seat rails correct for 1950s and 60s models. Whether you are performing a body-off restoration or a body-on patch repair, this floor pan is the industry standard for restoring the safety and value of your classic VW.

Detailed Vehicle Compatibility This floor pan is designed for standard Beetle chassis with 2-point seat runners (can fit later years but will have the earlier seat rails):

VW Beetle (Standard):

• 1958, 1959, 1960, 1961, 1962, 1963, 1964, 1965, 1966, 1967, 1968, 1969, 1970

Product Highlights & Features

• Pre-Welded Components: Saves hours of fabrication time by including factory-located seat tracks and heavy-duty jack supports(jack points will need to be removed if installing on a convertible to make room for the support rail to be installed after).

• Crisp Stampings: Features the correct strengthening ribs to prevent "oil-canning" and ensure a quiet, vibration-free ride.

• Protective Storage Coating: Shipped in a black "packing paint" to prevent flash rust during transit and storage.

• Structural Gauge Steel: Manufactured to a thickness that balances ease of welding with long-term chassis durability.

Technical Specifications

• Part Number: 111-701-062M

• Material Thickness: 21 Gauge (Approx. 1.0mm)

• Side: Right (Passenger Side)

• Finish: Black Rust-Inhibitor (Must be removed before final painting)

Installation & Maintenance Tips

• Remove Packing Paint: The black coating on these pans is not a primer. It must be stripped back to bare metal at the weld sites and ideally completely removed before applying a high-quality epoxy primer or chassis paint.

• Test Fit Before Welding: Always "dry fit" the pan before burning it in. You may need to perform minor trimming or "massaging" of the edges to account for 50+ years of chassis flex or previous repairs.

• Body-On Tip: If replacing the pans with the body still on the chassis, use several Sheet Metal Cleco Fasteners or self-tapping screws to pull the pan tight against the heater channels before welding.

• Seal the Seams: After welding, use a high-quality automotive seam sealer on both the top and bottom of the pan to prevent water from entering the lap joints and causing "new" rust.

• Don't Forget: The pan seal and hardware are not included with the pan.
