Cracking on with the floorboard & interior now, only one pic to prove it tho as there's not much visable difference yet!!!!

Varnishing the floor board tonight as well as modifying the seat/bed base to fit!!

That's all folks!!

For now

 

[gninnam]

Getting exciting now :mrgreen:

 

[Lee C]

Floor in & screwed down with insulation & waxoyl underneath, not that you can tell :lol:

I'm going to build some little infill pieces to straighten up the edge of the floor, this is why I should have used 2 thinner sheets of ply :roll: :x

Lots of cleaning and fixing laminates on the furniture & I'll need to modify the cooker unit so as to fit a gas bottle!

More tonight???

 

[Myvanway]

That interior will look bang on, Looks in good condition.
PVA Glue and Camps will sort that Formica out.

Love the progress Lee, good to see you keeping the faith.

Well despite it not being high priority, I took advantage of having the valeter in today to do a customers car & borrowed his George Hoover washer thingy, very impressive, you could actually see the dirt coming off & the inside the machine when I'd finished,,,,, :sick0020: :sick0020: :sick0020:

Top one is before, bottom one is after.

Turned out very nice for 30+ year old! 8) !!

Made the little infill panels to level the floor up,

Gaffer tape over the top fixes everything :lol:

Insulation looks. Little hap hazard, but it's better than nowt!!!

& made & varnished the trim for inside the tailgate,

Not a lot for how long it took, but hey ho, every little bit, blah blah blah, Rome not built in a day waffle waffle blah blah,,,,,,,!

When you don't do these things for a living they do seem to take a long time

Body & paint is my profession, but i quite enjoyed the engine building & I'm rockin this interior rebuilding at the moment, just pissed off its taking so long, missed 2 summers noo!!!

Only 2 summers.... I've missed 8 :sad0049:

Yeah I mentioned that to the wife the other day, she said I'm not to get any ideas!!!! :lol:

 

[Lee C]

very happy with me bit job done the neet like!!!

I've made a nice big panel to go reet along the far side 8)

Started off with old bit westy one off of Elliott, so I drew round that &made it a bit longer too,

Ended up with this,

Marked out where the trim clip holes were so as not to try n drill there,

Then drilled & screwed it all in with some nice silver pan head screws I bought,

I even made this little bit to stick out from behind the wardrobe

Other side is goin to require some thought mind !!!!

I still need to remove the bit I've just done for varnishing like!!

More themerra neet!!!
