How a vehicle has been stored and the location are
determining factors to a prospective buyer.
It looks like the Center Door has been stored

Re: Enclosed Trailer floor covering?
Before you put any coating on …
Crawl under your trailer to make sure that
the screws that were put in from above
actually hit the crossmembers.
You might want to put a few more screws in
and make sure the ones that were installed are tight.
