[QUOTE="mmf, post: 212798, member: 4379"] Well, I got the floor cut and riveted in, 50 rivets on this! Today I got up early and started the dreaded job of cleaning off the carpet glue on alot of pieces, next, I started on on one of the side pieces. I started on the most difficult one first that has the recessed controls mounted to it along with the wiring harness. I had to lengthen this piece as well so I cut it out of the new sheet aluminum I have then also used the original panel behind the new one to add a little more stiffness. Finally got everything hooked up and then riveted the panel in place after I made 2 additional anchor plates close to the front deck. I might end up putting one of the storage areas back in that goes in front of the console, can't make up my mind for now, but I am thinking. After I get the other side piece cut and installed I will start working on the bench seat I am making from 1" X 6" composite boards, then start on the rear floor installation. I will post the updated pix in a couple of days. It sure is HOT out there working on this too! [/QUOTE]
