Bulkhead

Virtually done fabricating sections, bar blasting the surface rust off the metal and bending the section over the steering column, cleaning up the paint on the edges ready for welding.
It'll be seam welded with a TIG...then ground clean.
Well bent.
No gaps really, the panels all fit ok, just needs finishing off.
Hopefully get it tacked up very soon, will finish off the cleaning up tomorrow and final fitting. Notice it needs no real use of clamps and grips cause the panels are well formed! Metal work also another talent I have!

I will stick on some silver heat shielding / sound deading to main recess area. As the panels are flat they will act like a drum so will need some deadening for road use.
