I riveted on the cast fuel tank hold downs to the hull floor. I ended up using an air hammer and modified one of the punches. I cut the point off of the punch then ground it out into a dished shape. For a bucking bar I used a bottle jack with a 1/4" plate between the ram and the hull floor. It was very easy to do and I was very happy with the results.
Its not the best picture but this was the finished result. Here is how the jack was setup. It held all 4 rivets in place while I hit them from the inside. Lastly are a few pictures of the No2 cooker and pot/pan installed, the carrier fuel funnel in place and with a 2 gallon petrol tin.

More small stuff.
Added the rear seat cushion strap. I ended up using a Pat37 webbed trouser belt. It fit perfectly.

Rear seats
Hi Jordan, I remember your thread on making those rear seats, did you ever come across an original one, I know you we're asking for info a while back, I need to make two as original as possible. I also need details of the wood floor boards.
Kevin.

Hi Kevin
Never found any originals at all. This was as close as I could make it.
