Ya, the laminate was there when we bought the house. I was a little worried about wear and tear... man that stuff can with-stand anything. I took a test piece and tested a bunch of different potential fluids to see how it would hold up (brake fluid, gas, oil, brake clean, gunk, solvent, etc... ) I let them sit for 48 hours and nothing! And it sure is nice to work on a nice heated clean floor.

James, the upper bar for the traction bar is not connected so the angle of the down bars is not correct. Nothing is in proper place, the body is just sitting on the pan for a test fit.
