Sorry Dave, I should have put a bit more context in the question.
The photo I attached was a photo from ARN203004 at auction in June last year. It looks like it had gained about 3,000km (which isn't bad for a years driving) and lost the stretchers/aliminium floor out of the back ?
What my question was, does AWOL still have them? I also send a PM to "El" but couldn't attach a photo.

Ah, now I see.
Can't say if they still have them. Don't recall if they were in one of the piles auctioned a couple of weeks ago with the other removed accessories. Sorry.
They are not stretchers though, just removable false floor panels.
Kind Regards, Barefoot Dave.

You'd expect that if a vehicle was missing a fuel tank, that they would list that in the disciption. Wouldn't you?!?

For all those who have supported or wished me well, I am extremely glad to announce that a VERY, VERY good mate is going to purchase Lot 27/ ARN 51670 to secure it for me until I have the funds together to buy.
I am stunned by this generosity (i'll make it worth his while)
R: you are a legend!
So for both our sakes, please bid on something else just this once. There are plenty to choose from. If you know someone bidding, please give them a heads up.
Best regards, Dave B.

So you are the happy chap getting the SRV?  Was it $18800 plus the 17%.  Will look better with a new canvas, there more complexed than the others,  Robco sell them for $2500.

You might have to get some plates made up for the floor, as they are NLA.  But someone on here might know of a set knocking around, you will need the frame as well for the plate ( its separate to the base plate. )

Boxy, but is it still in your shed?
Yes, typo in the rush. 680.

I am wrapped to say that due to the amazing kindness of an AULROan, My old Mate (Mad Mick) is now safe!
The RFSV will spend some time in storage until I can come up with the dollars then we are back on the track again.

You sir, are a Legend and a quiet one at that.
Thanks again for the support and understanding.
Kind Regards, Barefoot Dave.
