Almost no rust under the floor! I pulled the factory subfloor out of my Sprinter van to check for rust and damage. There's just a little around some of the old screw holes.
I also removed the cargo lights, the ceiling, the door panels and the insulation behind them, then took out the whole floor. I also removed some old pop rivets so they don't turn into rust spots later.
Last time I wasn't sure I'd get the glue off the walls. I've made some progress, and there's more of that coming in a later video.
One bolt is stuck in the floor and won't budge, no matter what I try. It's still there. I might need to plan the build around it.
