Big step.

A friend rolled me up a half firewall (went a bit wonky on the top swage)

Tacked it in under the existing bits ready to cut through and weld in flush.

Even with it just tacked in the shell has gone really stiff/ solid

Didn’t achieve anything last week as I was in bed with the plague.

Chopped through the 2 bulkhead panels to get them butted up ready for welding and cocked it up a bit, so had to chop out a bit and put a filler in. Bit more knocking back and you hopefully won’t be able to tell.

Need to cut the other side so hopefully won’t end up with the same problem, but it’s all fixable and I guess that’s why filler was invented

Bit of practice and actually getting the work welder set up right is helping a lot.

Bulkhead in, just needs dressing. Brace bar out and sunroof and mech out as well.

Just been slapped with a 550 bill of back rent on the unit, so things that I need to buy will have to wait. Plenty to do that’s free though

2 favourites at the moment

Vw based - 1776 supercharged. If mine comes out like this I’ll be very happy.

V8 based - which I cannot find for love nor money at the moment.
