Onto building the new floor. I started with 16 gage flat steel in a four foot square. Measured then cut to size. Since a flat floor wouldn't be to structural, and not to mention would stand out, I use a bead roller to create some creases.
Outer step down, liner grooves and a 90 degree bend to wrap it up. Closeup of the groves.
To reinforce the floor I fab up some C channels from the flat 16 gage steel.
Finished welding up all parts. The upper left junction will be where a new body mount will be.
New floor set in place. Still much more to do....
