:lol: thanks for all the comments. :D

Yeah I'm pretty lucky with the floor and am trying to keep it fairly clean. The blokes who poured and floated it did a great job. Once I've finished on the wagon I might seal it with something.

It's good to get my son Tom involved...in 20 years or so when he's cruising around in it he can say that he helped build it. Up until now its been mainly welding and grinding so hopefully he can do a bit more now. PLUS as Mick and Russel says...it saves me from doing it...seriously you can get a lot done more quicker with some extra hands.

Some big steps during this last week.

First I borrowed four 44 gallon drums from the local mechanic and then got hold of some muscle - some of my neighbours - Will and Greg and some Holden guys Peter (Cal) and Craig a mate who has an FC ute. We rolled out the EK and lifted the body onto the drums. Can't say I've ever tried to lift an EK wagon but with the 4 other guys it was suprisingly easy. :thumbsup:
