Hiya chaps

Left the cab uncovered for about 6 months .. i really think it was a bad idea !

Ended up drilling a hole in the floor to let it out , then found a rubber bung i could remove :(

Removed the seat , drilled another hole in the floor

The unbloted the seat belt anchor , and found another bung :(

so now i have 4 holes in the floor , 2 of which shouldnt be there ! LOL

Took out the ABS Ecu(s) and the main ecu

took them to my dad and blew them dry with the compressor

they look ok , no corrosion on them - so might have either

1 - caught it in time
2 - the water didnt get that deep

all fun and games eh .. i must take the "project dry roof" to the next level ASAP :D

Prof

you can spend that 96p on some more bungs then - fill in your swiss cheese floor ;)
 
Going back to serious - I would paint some protection on those holes if I was you - don\'t want your floor pan going rusty.
