Yes Matey
The seat is set for me and there is still room to move it back without touching the shelf  :)

Good stuff. My bulkhead is just temporary, so I can remove easily and have all 4 seats available. Was wondering about extra cross bracing, your basic frame would do that really well if you fitted welded in diagonals. Notice youve done quite a bit more since then though

Thought I would try and make a Bulkhead today
I got some measurements for the window aperture off of Alex360, thanks again for that, got my rule, pencil and a nice new peice of Plywood

First of I welded in a very very basic frame to take the bulkhead
I will weld in some more to give the bulkead something to screw and bond to

Thanks for the nice comments Guys

I will be putting a couple of diagonals in, just to give it some more strength, but the frame is only really there so the Plywood has something to screw/bond to.

Ps 355Brian your car looks great. I do love the colour. Whenever I think about what colour to go, it is always a toss up between Red or Yellow

Cheers Matey
Yes, once I had the measurements you gave me, I could then work out where the window would be and then work out the rest  ;D
Thanks again
Mick
