Now, I was thinking......................

(thinking) did it hurt..lol
now i'll read what else you wrote about

if done neatly i guess it would look OK

Could get a little soggy on water crossings and mud runs ....but good to see the grey matter still turning over willem..... LOL

Willem
Might be better to use the space from the inside as there would be nothing to fall open, leave open or heaven forbid let dust in ;-))
Peter

Would you not run the risk of bashing your new hidey hole in then and not being able to get to the goodies therein?

Hi Willem,
I'd be inclined to do what Peter suggested.
I'd get it fixed and make inside a storage space. Less chance of water, dust and other nasty things happening when you lest expect it to happen. You know, Murphy's Law
It's still a good idea, you've gotta use every square inch of space.

Willem
Others have done the "Thinking" gags so i'll leave that one alone.

Still alloy cover it outside and storage access from inside, seems to make sense to me. Best of both worlds maybe. But cover both sides just for balance of appearance though.

Yes I know, you cannot improve on the looks of a Nissan, they appear tough just sitting in the drive.
Cheers Colin.

PS I bet you thought that idea through anyway, once you got over the initial pain of thought.

the NIKE swoosh is my answer...........................just do it.

No doubt it will get grotty in there , but so what.

If you reinforce the floor, can you put heavier stuff ( like a bottle jack) in there ??????

Other-wise, snatch 'ems & other recovery & tyre stuff would be good to go in there.

Cheers

Oh sh1te....strap yourselves in everyone. This is gonna be good. Sorry W but I just couldn't resist that one. Love using it everytime one of my bosses uses that line "I've been thinking"! Remarkable that I'm still employed lol! Isn't there a few mounting struts and a chasis rail or something just behind that? Actually it begs the question WHO DID IT...you or judith?

Cheers mate

Maybe you could tidy it up with a Toyota insigna? lol

Young Fella,

If you work out the dimensions I can source you a bit of CP cheap and cut it for you (gratis of course).

Delivery FOC to Pyrenees.

It seems a good idea for a storage area, but you want to work out how to put a frame in there for the hinged flap and some sort of locking mechanism Willem.
It seems to me that you would want to work that out before the gas axe gets to work.
JMHO

Darkside Conversions have some experience in removing dents on that part of the car, You'll be seeing them in 3-4 weeks...

How about a sealed compartment and a down hinged door outside with a hole for using as a dunny? Keep the chemical smell from invading the cabin.
Lucky it's not a Toyota, with that much damage it would be a write off.
(Sorry Tojo owners, it's just a joke. We all know what brand is better)
Cheers
