Isn't the carpet planks meant to sit on top of that metal bar spanning across the rear?

i legitimately don't know

Well, it would make sense as it's extra support for when weighted items are placed back there.

Also, looks less tidy as you can see an exposed piece of "bracing"....

Yes carpet sits on top of that bar.

Is the wooden floor difficult to put in with the strut brace?

Not at all.

A little more progress today

Moved all the crap to the boot

Was met by this motherfucker. he didn't last too long

Last pic i could get before light went.

Basic cleaning work is almost done. now just have to get rid of the smell of musky cigarettes and a can of mortein...

Oh yes, and the Wood is now on top of the brace. much better fit!

I learned something today!

Got some better photos of the finished clean today

Still some stains and whatnot. will hit those with a rug doctor, and i've heard steam cleaning removes most of the cigarette smell? might give that a go.

Next: pedals, slushbox stick, and the in cab air filter. may as well

There's an in cab air filter?

I may have missed it, but what happened to the last FTO?

Don't think there is a in cab filter.

EDIT: Just flipped through the workshop manual and there is no mention of it.
