Ron and Curt:
I defer to your superior knowledge. My brackets were mounted underneath the
floor, which made some kind of sense to me (!)
During its previous restoration, it had a very well done custom interior by a
shop that obviously knew what they were doing, but not much interested in
originality. They also made the floor for the boot and installed the brackets
underneath. Everything in the boot was then covered in carpet.
Done back when Vans were in, and carpet was the material of choice....

I have a trunk floor that I bought from Tiger Tom. The brackets
are on top of the plywood covered by the vinyl and there are I believe they
are called Tee Nuts on the bottom.
The original plywood I would think was a Marine grade plywood, 7
layers if I recall. You would need a Marine or Furniture grade plywood for
the floor. I'm sure Tiger Tom can answer detail questions if you have any.

I am making a new plywood trunk "floor" for my Tiger. Wanted to check stock
installation since I am not sure the one that is in my car is original.
Do the brackets that support the floor and hang off the front bulkhead mount
on top of the plywood and get covered by the vinyl, or do they mount
underneath the plywood and are exposed when you lift the plywood floor?
Thanks,
Curt
