Floor PANELS needed!

[rennart]

This is my lovely F6 van that I have had for about 10 years now. It is 'B' reg.
You may also remember my trusty R4 from Renospeed rallys, which 'touch wood' is working beautifully.
This post is about my van - I have found a lovely mechanic on the Marsh who has got the engine running like a dream.
However....due to rust, we failed the latest MOT : (
My call out is that floor panels are needed. Does anybody out there have a clue where we can source some please?
I have asked John to send me some photos to show details of the problem area. I believe it is the back bumper holding section that is the main problem,
but will confirm shortly.
In the meantime, here is the beauty that needs to be 'back on the road'

Is this the panel you need?

The part number is 7700580020.
They're very hard to find now - I eventually tracked this down in Holland: https://renaultvijf.nl/webwinkel/
They might be able to find one for you.
These might be handy too:

R4 F6 Rear bumper bracket per piece) Suitable for Renault R4 F6.

Thanks so much for info Andy - will pass on to mechanic and see what he says.
He is a confident welder!
In the meantime, here are some photos....!

You're welcome!
You'll certainly need these (they're the Der Franzose parts in the link I gave you):

They just bolt to the chassis legs (which will probably need some work). They replace the arrowed bits in your photos - forgive me for copying them:


I hope the lateral beam (the green part in my post) can be saved.
Good luck!

Yes we need this part! Is this available from you at all? : )
I couldn’t find it on the Dutch site, but have sent them an email….

Hi Karen
Sorry, I'm afraid I need it for my F6!
As I said, I was extremely lucky to find it; if the Dutch site can't help, try Steen at Stony Renault:
https://www.renaultdele.dk/kontakt.aspx He has a lot of rare parts, so well worth an email.
The Der Franzose parts will save you a lot of time and money - pretty good quality, too.
Hope your van is repaired soon - at least you've got a good welder!
All the best
Andy

It's not the sort of part you'll find secondhand, but if anyone knows where to get a new old stock one in France, he will.
