Thought its time to post my progress
Straightened the cargo floor and painted
Replaced the rear corner and battery tray installed the cargo sill both front outriggers and sections from the centre supports and this weekend the front floor.
It's great seeing it come together the rotisserie has made it so much easier.

Thanks guys
Front 15x 4.5 tyres 165x50
Rear 15x 5.5 tyres 185x50
Running adapters so could not go any wider only got about 5mm clearance on rear
4.5 inch narrow beam with adjusters and flipped spindles can't go any lower as wheels rub.
Cheers
