i hired a 6kw genny on friday and its fine powers the welder great the boot floor is done ,rear valance is done and filler panels done ready to do the floor 2moro

[camp freddy]

Bought some floor panels and outer sills, came on friday ,much better that i
thought they would be as they included the tunnel.





next thing is to completely cut out the old floor !!!!





When i had roughly trimmed out the floor i thought i would lay in the new panels,
looks ace , can see the light at the end of the tunnel now

mate im doing my to front floor pans plus the box across the floor ,have you put in any braces to stop the shell moving out of shape ? will it do that or im i just worrying to much lol

[camp freddy]

you should be ok if you are leaving the rear pans in place, i have
got some movement so i've got to take care when fitting the floor back in
Probably best to do one side at a time
