While I'm waiting to get my frame painted I decided to get back to interior construction work since I have a lot of it left to do. I drilled and tapped holes in my cargo floor to install 1/4-20 screws that hold the floor plywood down. The screws go into the braces I built to support the floor. I removed the aluminum rear seat framework and finished welding it all up and reinstalled it. Then I laid out and cut out the upper cargo area side pieces from 3/8" plywood and laid out the trim lines and speaker locations. I cut the 6x9 speaker openings and temporarily screwed the plywood to the framework. The console will extend basically all the way to the liftgate, but it's only roughed out in the picture. For grins, I reinstalled everything I've built so far. My interior guy is going to have to gap and trim everything the way he wants it when he finishes the interior.

This is kinda what it's supposed to be like when the cargo area is finished...

Next I have to finish fiberglassing the rear panels, and figure out how to attach the armrests in front. After that, the front panels just need some tweaking of the gaps before they're ready for covering with leather. My interior guy wants to get started on the side panels as soon as he can. I still have to decide on a seat design but the seating area will be perforated leather, with the rest of it plain leather. Colors have been chosen and we need to get the leather ordered soon.
