Mine does, but i think it's cause the filler neck is damaged. Anyway, nice carry van mate. A polished floor would look great, but don't make it too thick, you don't want to add too much weight to it.

A box weighs about 10kg for a box, that gets about 5 square metres, going by what the box said.

That's not too bad, and probably hard to notice if it will slow the carry down at all.......

My subwoofer weighs far more than 10kg and it is not noticeable. Don't forget these are designed to carry.
I wouldn't mind doing the floorboard thing myself and because I always have something or other in the back I will cover them with the original carpet. At least it will be comfortable to sleep on when necessary, there is not much worse than uncomfortable ridges running down the floor.
(Please note; my van has no connection with the Trans-national chain of motels "Ridges", where I am certain people have a very comfortable sleep.)

LOL.

I've got a 2 piece plywood floor in my panel van to make it more comfortable. Not yet had the chance to sleep in it, but i'm sure it will be better than the ridged floor it has!

ok, well before any of that can go in, we need to go to the depo, get one of those huge air conditioners off the buses, and put it in, so we can cruise nice and cool. What about a super super carry, make it a limo. Ladder chassis lol. Bowling ally maybe.

Sorry its early, sleepy time.

Hmmm, come to think of it now. I'm not sure the carry will stand up to all this.... I will definitely be looking into the vinyl floor boards.. (I think its the only really possible suggestion... :-P )

But what can i put under them to get rid of the bumps in the floor??

Hey, i have dark brown ones, for my room in our house, i wanted to be diff to the rest. I have like 2 or 3 boxes that i didnt need, over estimated my room size lol. You can have them if you want. might want to lay some firbo or macinite ( sorry about the spelling ) under the boards, make it even before they go down, the boards are quite flexible and easy to cut.
