Well the rain has gone for a while and the sun is shining again so managed to get a few things done.
After a bit of tooing and froing i think i have the hood just right.

Made a template of the trans tunnel and then bent it up in a bit of aluminium sheet that was kicking around, I made a steel mounting flange that is screwed and glued to the floor and the tunnel screws to that with small countersunk machine screws.

Managed to get the floor glassed into place as its a job done thats been bugging me. First i flipped the body upside down and trimmed off the lower sill return to 3/4" wide (this makes it easier to get the body on & off)

Then the areas that needed keying were marked with a felt tip pen as its difficult to see where you have been with the white. Used and angle grinder and finger sander to key it.

Next the floor panel was bolted back into place with 3 layers of mat & resin in between the flanges, then a further 3 layers were added at the top & bottom of the joints, Then 1 layer was applied to the underside of the floor.

Once the resin had hardened the body was put back on the frame and matting cut to shape for the inside.
