Floorpan

Anyone in SE England got an SJ body that I can make a GRP mould from?

I want to swap a new body onto my SJ, from a Jago Geep. Really is time I got my arse in gear and got this thing going.

Now, for legal reasons I need the SJ road legal (MOT'd, taxed and insured) BEFORE I swap the body, but I'd rather not have the SJ off the road while I get the body swapped, so I'd like to make a GRP floorpan (so I can fibreglass it into the body that is destined to go on there), then get a dash from a breaker, persuade that in, and once the body is essentially ready to go, *then* swap 'em over. Planning on running a crossmember under the seats that the seats bolt to (so I'm connected to the chassis by METAL, not plastic), but want a floor I can hose out without worrying about tinworm.

So anyone got a body off a chassis right now I can come use to make a mould from?
