Having shopped around the world via the internet for floor panels for my LJ80 and found them so expensive even without the shipping, I thought maybe I could cut the panels out of the rear floor area of a donor vehicle (not that I have a donor vehicle). Anybody tried this Anybody have a donor vehicle?

I have the rear floor out of a sierra for repair patches on the floor of my LJ ( but have not started yet ) profile looks like a good match

If you can't find originals, look for an old time panel beater that uses "english wheels etc", most of these guys are retired now and for them it's pocket money (unless they do specialist restorations). I am sure they will be cheaper than imports.

We cut the entire floor out and replaced it with checker plate..
