This was missing when I found the car (1974 4/4) and I'm assuming that some marine ply-wood with epoxy will suffice - assuming I can get the right thickness.
I noted some older posts out there where people seemed to be creating additional shelves between the battery location and the parcel shelf and I was wondering if anyone has completed a project like this for a 4/4 and has photos and feedback to share on what they did ?
Thanks

Thanks I've made three tool trays. The first in plywood, screwed and glued. The second mainly from a single sheet of aluminium, with sides added and a box to take the difference casing. (Not the best method) The third was made up of a number of shaped aluminium sections riveted together. This one created the most space, but the plywood version is a much easier build.

I made a tool shelf using exterior grade ply and standard 40 x 12 pine strip from B&Q. Nothing fancy but dead easy to make and does the job fine. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2017/08/31/IMG_0913.jpg)

PM me I have design drawings for an ali tray but for the wide bodied cars so you might need to reduce the width.

Agreed - this looks perfect for what I had in mind. I've only taken my Morgan out once. Almost at the point of taking it out again - pending a couple of fixes and I'm very adverse to breaking down without all the stuff I imagine I'll need !!
