Morris Minor Owners Club

I am in the process of replacing the floors,sills etc.(one side at a time obviously) I have completely removed the old 'uns and cleaned everything up. Should the floors bear directly on the crossmember and welded to it, or should there be a gap, perhaps filled with sound deadening stuff?

The floors should be welded directly to the crossmember. Anything else would leave the shell less strong than it should be.

Thanks Ian, will do . Cheers
