I'm like you bro, doing little things here and there. I just finished making the cardboard makeup for the floor and baffle, now just got to fit stuff and then the cutting begins. pics will come when the cutting starts.

well, I got over the hump! so to speak. before after. I must say, cutting / grinding around gas lines is not something I enjoy , but I'm glad its done! got the first layer for the floor down. question, how do you astro users secure your floor.. usually? Bond,screw, bolt or weld? Being that I don't have jack strong enough to lift her, I don't know what are the safe areas are to drill.

I would bolt it down personally. Either through the bottom of the box now while its easily accessible or once it has a back to it, put a L tab on the back at the bottom secured to the box and the floor that way. I secured the top with a brace tied to the box at the rear corner of it to the roof mounted seat belt tabs that hang down near the side window glass.
