Bit of cooker info needed please

Many thanks for all that good info. I thought there was some bits missing! I don't suppose I'll find those shaped edging strips. Will end up making those but I don't really want to strip the wood on the case as I prefer the original finish but I'll do my best to match it on the side strips.
I'm also looking for any pics of what they installed into a walk-through behind the driver seat on a RHD. I know I'll never be able to have an original look bearing in mind that I have a full width bed. I'm trying to get a table and an opposing seat arrangement and making it all work if you see what I mean but I'll have a better Idea when I fit the floor!

This is mine:
mine looks like it has been contoured. I have the metal bar at the bottom. However I don't know if mine is an original Pitt as I don't have a dented spare wheel well

The bar at the bottom of your cooker is the same as I have on mine. If you have the original cargo floor have a look underneath and about 10" back from,the front bulkhead and 6" in from the cargo doors is there a square section about the size of a cigarette packet cut out or repaired? This would have been the top up for the under floor water tank on a Pitt. Also check on the M-plate to,see what it came with as most vans for conversion would have been supplied as a Kombi (van with windows) and nothing in the back. Also rhd headlamps and quite probably no battery (something to do with shipping?)
Cheers, Lee.

My water tank is under the back seat behind the drivers seat. I presume it has always been there?

Tank sounds the same as mine
Most of my floor is original and I did not remember there being a plate so felt my tank must be original, nothing much had been done to our van before we got it and it had not done many miles either.Terry
