Default Snazzy new trailer floor!

The floor on my trailer was really getting nasty, so I gentleman I met through SCDA that owns a sheet metal shop helped me out. Jim Farley drives a Noble and was my student last year a couple of times and I helped him find new rotors for his car, showed him how to camber it and other set up tricks. His shop, Custom Sheet Metal, Manchester, NH did this to my trailer with .062 aluminum diamond plate and the workmanship is fantastic! They used stainless steel flat head screws that are countersunk, TIG welded corners, brake-bent lips all around, RTV bonded as well and just totally first class. The real kicker, is he did it for just the material cost, $450! Thanks, JIM!

Looking pretty good, well besides the late fall in the back round. This is the 3rd night in a row "coldest night so far".

too bad it can't stay that nice........ There'll be melted tires, sand, rocks, and blood soiling that floor in no time!

True, true, but it was a favor from a really good guy I could not pass up.

That looks great. And reminds me, I need to get some traction tape down on my floor before Atlanta.
