Hi All,

Hoping someone with experience of late classics can tell me something, or better still show me, how this section of the boot floor should look. Both sides of mine are rusted and patched beyond recognition and I can't really tell what it should have looked like. I feel as if my rear cross member, which has been replaced at some point, might be a little too low, but I'm not sure.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the reply. I had seen that one on google image search, and another of a new panel for the boot side which seems to have a different curve, but it’s more how the different panels come together with the crossmember which I am confused about. It seems as if the boot side sits above the crossmember with a gap between them?

Looking at that photo again I’ve just realised I also need to work out where the captives for the sub woofer brackets should go, although I suppose I could always just refit the sub to work that out.

I could take pics of mine but it had a crossmember before I owned it and I have patched that area both sides
 
Awesome, that’s really helpful. I completely forgot that George had done this section in a Soup video! Thanks. I’m now wondering whether to replicate as factory or try to do something different and eliminate the dirt trap on top of TV e cross member under the boot floor side which must be a contributor to the rust in this area!

Thanks again.

Mine is an 89 and the filler neck is lower, so there is a recessed bit that it sits behind
