Full length drip pans

Does anyone know a company that offers a full (car) length drip pan? I built a new shop and epoxied the floors and would like a full length pan to sit up the cars, seems like a no brainer but I cant seem to find one. I remember places like Auto Zone use to have 10 footers and that would be a great option but undoubtedly no longer available. My other option is to go to a local sheet metal company and have something made, the online custom pan shops are charging a King's ransom so that's out.

Thanks in advance, Kevin

I have these...not full length but covers all the the leak areas,easy enough to store when not in use.

Those aren't liquid-tight are they? I think we have some of those and it seems like where the wheels attach they just snap into to container.

I guess maybe if you have a leak that large there might be an issue :roll: :lol:

See Ya,
Mike

I've seen many drip pans made for machines ,right there in the sheet metal shop at the RR ,some was half to an inch deep,in the boilershop,they built catch pans on a larger scale,those were brought to my paint booth for me to paint....
