[QUOTE="Heynow, post: 198655, member: 5605"] Next, it was time to work on the rear “deck”, which will essentially provide a storage space for my gas tank and some other odds and ends. Much like my front deck, I decided to use 2x2’s that will sit on top of the rear seat and will run into the face of the transom. Also like my front deck, I attached that piece of plastic material to the transom and cut out some notches for my 2x2’s to fit into. Here I have the rear deck frame in place. There will be a hatch above the gas tank, and another on the opposite side: [img]https://i1122.photobucket.com/albums/l530/Heynow29/rearstructure.jpg[/img] Then, I began cutting out a cardboard template for the deck: [img]https://i1122.photobucket.com/albums/l530/Heynow29/reardecktemplate.jpg[/img] I transfered my template to the plywood and made the cuts, including the hatches and hole for the seat mount. I Thompson'ed the edges and bottom of the deck and hatches, and now they're awaiting some carpeting. [/QUOTE]
