Floored logic.

In amongst prepping the chassis I also started stripping out the floor panels with a view to removing the seat box. The panels were held down with a variety of fixings and the original mushroom screws were either the easiest to remove or the hardest. The latter required drilling an screw extractor. I didn’t want to risk grinding the floor panels.

At this point I went straight into removing the transmission tunnel panel. The fittings came out easily, but the panel would not. Logically I needed to remove the heater first. Time to drain the coolant.

I did also take the heater apart for no particular reason other than I was interested, and it will need a good clean.
