Default rear tray

The fuel tanks are odd and took a bit of head scratching to sort out.

These are standard Chev 15cwt tanks but the cap and neck hole has been plated over with a soldered patch. The tanks are filled from the top where a screw cap has been added. To fill the tanks you need to open the rear door, open up a flap in the floor and insert a funnel.

All the original timbers on the tray were examined and compared with photos I got from Keith to nut out what went where.

The floor boards were cut and grooved as per the originals. Finding out that Tassy Oak is expensive so the old "measure twice cut once" mentality kicked in.
