    If you have ever put together one of those backyard aluminum or steel buildings, this is a lot like that. You have to build the floor first and then attach the sides. In this case, we have screwed the subframe squarely to the platform and will then build the body from the back forward.

    Here are some more pictures. Picture one shows the wooden floor Brookville throws in with the deal. We won't be using it, but it came in handy to get our gaps straight. Picture two through 5 are after we temporarily installed the back panel of the body, just to see how it would look and line up. It has a lot of fitting to be done to it, but it at least gives us some hope that this might turn into a body after all.

    Thanks for looking.
