In the foot box area, I used a couple of different thickness of 3003 sheet. For the floorboard .063 is used. .040 is used for the side panels. To add strength to the floorboard, it received ˝” wide square beads over most of the surface.
The seat mounts go through the floor boards and are bolted to chassis tubes. Given that the bottom side is covered with a belly pan (and I didn’t want any holes in it), I had to put access holes in the floorboards to tighten the front bolts. These are filled with round snap in plugs from the hardware store.
Here's the foot boxes with the poly peeled off.
I wanted the “metallic” look in the interior. Well, it certainly has a metallic look.
I decided to do diamond tuck on the lower panels to give them some texture. I still need to decide what to do for upper and door panels but I doubt it will be diamond tuck. I'm thinking something more than plain sheet but not as busy as the diamonds. I'm thinking the upper and door panels are what most people will see so that's why I'm taking some time to think it through.
My plan is to do the interior behind the front seats like a hatchback. In other words, there will be no separator panel between passenger compartment and trunk. This gives me quite a bit of sheet surface area to emboss. I do plan to emboss the Ferrari stallion (probably somewhere around a 12 inch version or so) somewhere in that sheet metal.
Any and all ideas on what might look good are welcome.
