John's right as usual.

Just make your own from any decent width of salvage timber. The original was about 7/8 or 15/16" thick, with a slight recess for the strips.

Best way to build it is from each side inwards, leaving the centre section out till last so you can get the seat location screws set. You can actually do the whole thing without a diagram just using the screwed fasteners in the floor beams as a guide, and each one is slightly different.

A couple of points; don't cut any rebates for the wear strips until you have the floor in place, and don't make it too tight if you are using fried timber as it will swell and warp (I know) Find somebody with a carryall floor you can measure things like the chassis rail clearance hole gaps from.
