Or, a direct link to it here

You're welcome. I'm glad that the link/file supplied by @Angie still works after 4 years.

My credo
Lead follow or get out of my way
I guess I would question how perfect the body really is if it needs floor pans and then some.

You will probably end up buying floor pans and fab up the rest. Or maybe buy some cut pieces from a vehicle that is being scrapped that has what you need.

I don’t know if they sell complete floor pans but they do sell sections for a floor repair at LMC truck.

It just depends on your tools on hand and skills as to which route you want to go.
