And yeh Ive seen the pic Adam, thanks I forgot about sending it in and was flicking through it the other day and came across that shot

Looks good mate, love both the pinstriping and the nose art.

So this weekend after putting it off for ages I decided to get in and make up a new timber tray. Damo's old tongue and groove flooring just wasnt doing it for me and I wanted something where I could strap the bikes down. The other requirement was I wanted the whole thing flush so I could still easily slide things into the tray when required.

I bought some spring loaded tie down points from a truck supply mob, which look pretty good and feel nice and strong. I also bought some 12mm ply for the tray. Did a lot of measuring and eye balling and mocking up with various bikes to work out where I wanted the tie down points for easy bike carrying and to also make sure they didnt interfere with the bearers of the tray floor. Marked out the positions, used a hole saw to cut out the centre sections, and hand chisseled the outer area so the flange would be flush to the tray. Repeat x 6 Still needs some minor finishing and a coat of varnish, but its almost there Unfortunately I also found some nasty bits of rust in the lower floor, so I'll sort them out before I permanently attach the tray
