[VAL] Floor Joining Questions



We are very close to installing the new floor in our 1957 Caravanner.  

Q: I located new elevator bolts, but what do I do as far as JOINING the 
plywood seams together?  Originally there were flat metal like staples 
approx. every four inches.  Even if I located new ones I would not know how 
to install.  Any suggestions?

Q: What R factor insulation is recomended to put between the floor and the 
frame?

Q:  I am having a difficult time locating 4' x 12' sheets to install a new 
belly pan, any leads on locating such large sheets?

Any suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated
