well i got the floors off bill and what a fantastic job (as usual), i spent the afternoon today joining front and rear floor pans together and trial fitting, this was done with 3 trolley jacks and a pallet truck to hold the floor up into place whilst i marked out where needs joggling and where needed folding, anyway up to now the floor has had its 1st propper trial fit with the edge that meets the sill now folded, i've marked up the other 3 sides for joggling in the morning and hopefully i will have it fitted by tomorrow after noon

busy busy weekend, set off on saturday at 6.30 am on a 450mile round trip to pick up the replacement shell for the car thats been nailed riveted and tacked together, the car "we" bought is without doubt rough however FAR better than the other, rot is easy to repair bodging is always a nightmare, anyway i met matty/warby at the unit who was dressed in accordance to the wales rugby match,

Is that Aprilia now a long wheelbase model - having done the ratchet strap up too tight and streatched it?
If you didn't know what its supposed to look like there's not a lot to copy is there...
Have fun!!

Those floors panels look great and appear to fit very well !
By the way, what is the thing on the roof of the new "car" , just above the driver . I remember seeing it the original advert and wondering about it then.
Lastly, if you still want pictures of bootlid mounts and lid stay let me know, but I suspect you have seen enough now for your needs ....
Bon Courage !
