Thumbs Up thanks Andy, Cellerdweller also suggested Boalloy in Mongleton , initially I was thinking 1mm steel sheet, but other options may be lighter Thumbs Up

Greg .. The company that I got my GRP from do some paneling made of recycled plastic .. It's Megga tough and very light .. In fact if I'd have seen that before ordering my panels I may of gone that route as the GPR panels are heavier than I expected Shocked

Floor ...

Got the floor down , made some mounting holes .. cut out the wheel arches and water pipe entrance hole

Cut a bit of the extrusions .. But I'm still unsure of the storage area size in the middle .. Tommorow I will have to decide !!

I'm also struggling to find rivets
Need sealed / closed end .. 25mm long ( 16-20mm grip range ) Ali head and Ali mandrel ( I can find Steel mandrels )

Any suggestions ?
