'41 COE - Tidy up

So the customer brought us this Ford COE for us to do a bit of a tidy up on the wiring and fabricate new floors for a nice interior that will be done at Custom Creations when we're done.  We started looking it over and noticed a ton of other issues and the customer decided to let us get to work on making it safe as well as easier on the eyes.

 There were parts of this underlay that were pushed up into holes in the roof that then had bondo on the roof - guess that's one way to fill in a hole
