Do you have any pics of the rear firewall? Would this be in the build manual you were talking about?

Sadley not --- all my pic's are prints as I didn't possess a PC when I built the car. I've got a complete album of my build blow by blow . Offered it to P.Powell to make a new manual but he wasn't interested :|

Yes the bits you mention are what I meant :wink:

Have you offered up your windscreen to the hole? My issue with poor fit is still unresolved. If yours needs a tweak now might be the best time to do it.

Steve , the solid fibre glass windscreen which gets cut out is what they are talking about and the fact that the rear bulkhead gets made from it ----- so they'd like pic's of the fit . I dumped the f/glass from the screen in favour of alluminium for mine.

How's your build going :?: Finance is a bind right now , I know :roll:
