That's nice. :)

I like how you've recessed the small panel rather than simply screwing it onto the face of the bulkhead.

Thanks guys. In some areas I "overact" a little bit, in other areas not really :-(

Can I ask how you did the recessing? It looks very good. Just clever use of a hammer and dolly?

Looks like two flat plates, one behind the other. The outer ring of rivets holds the back plate in place, the front plate has a rectangular hole, the other a round.

Oh - of course. I should have looked more carefully, but am in the office- have to look like I'm doing work things rather than browsing T289R!

Did a try fit for the passenger seat and had to change the angle of the back, because it was too far away from the rear bulkhead. I tryed to regulate it by putting some additional bracket underneath the front but 120 mm was way to much. So I took the seat cover from the framework, cut off the 2 outer pipes, bent the back and welded it again. Put the cover back on and now it's better.
