So not a huge update but managed an hour tonight between commitments. Continued to make templates for the flooring. Its a PITA to be honest and will be so much easier once I can remove all the running gear and turn the shell upside down.

Are those flat pieces staying for the seat mounts?
That is the plan yeah. I know usually people tie them into rails running left to right but this seem simpler in my set up. The plates are 5mm thick but to add strength and stop flex i was gonna to to panel the sides to box in with the floor. They also need welding fully to the tube work. For access to the fixing nuts underneath i was going to cut access holes in the floor then bung them.
See any problems mate? I'm all ears.
Yay, glad you've had a lil time.

What I mean is you've crafted a wonderful structure from tube overall to then just stick 5MM flat sheet on top. Is there not a smaller ID tube you can then weld captives onto?
Oh I see! I think once boxed in it will look ok but I take your point. I just can't think of how to sensibly do it in tube without over tubing the area (yes, I am aware in the irony of that statement!Originally Posted by BRoadGhost
).
So decided tonight that I would drop the running gear and flip the chassis over, making it a million times easier to finish the floor! All was going smoothly until A wheel buckled on my little trolley that was meant to roll the engine out the way. Need to get me a crane sorted out now...
personally, i dont think you have enough axle stands in that garage
