Here's a link to some photo's of the repairs being carried out to the bulkhead of my car. Hoping to get it back next weekend so I can put it all back together.

A lad I work with is doing the work, he has a motosport buisness with his dad, mainly in the evenings and weekends due to his day job. I'm pleased with the work he's doing, looks a top job.
They are based in Elesmere port.
Heres thier website.

that was a bad one!! must have been badly blocked up with leaves and crap.
I think Fords original design and position of the hole in the bubble left a bit to be desired. there was always going to be a little channel of water lying there before it flowed out the hole.
Before I welded the bubble back I filled the little trench behind the hole so no water will sit there any more.

Ah - not so unusual, I've seen a couple of Mk1's go there. Also seen some bad bodges to the area.

Not quite so far up the bulkhead admittedly with the rust but certainly bad around the area - don't own that one anymore.
