Title: Floor Pan
Post by: YellaBelly on 16, September, 2009, 01:51:43 PM
I'm after opinions guys.

Got my ally for the floor but not sure whether to fit it as 2 seperate pieces (one each side) and leave the tunnel open at the bottom, or fit it as one piece and gain acces to prop shaft from the top if needed?

Comments and suggestions welcomed :)

I've done separate sides, seen others do one piece so may be a personal preference.

Guess it makes future access easier in some respects, but has downsides like dirt and not flat floor, did toy with the venturi idea but not up to it.

I would guess after seeing my prop being removed that access would be the issue, much easier from the bottom, assuming the car is on a ramp.

How about a three piece floor so you can remove a section to get to the prop.

Just to add to this, as the sheet I had could do the whole floor in one, I did it in one. ;D
