Mine is a 33 Cabriolet but it still might help you.  I started by making cardboard templates and then tracing it out onto the metal.  I made mine in three pieces and started with the front.  I cut a piece of 14 ga. over size and bent it first.  Then used the template to mark it and then cut it.  I chose 14 ga. for the front so it wouldn't oil can.  I used 16 ga. for the two rear pieces.  Let me know if I can answer any questions.  Here's a couple of pictures to give you the inspiration.

Here's a couple more pics that I had.  I built a subframe out of 1" X 1" similar to John for mine then laid the floor over it.  This is a better picture of the rear floor.
