Apologies for the first version of this which posted a web link. Not intentional advertising and placed to highlight some similar work I am considering. This was in regard to fabricating a replacement Defender bulkhead. This was suggested to me by a Jeep owner who does a lot of off-roading here on Vancouver Island. Him and his pals have an alum fabricator here in BC who make quick-and-easy replacement panels. The same crowd have moved into replacement bodies, bulkheads/firewalls for 'FJs'.
I asked them if they would consider building replacement Defender bulkheads. They are interested and have plans in place already to explore this.
They asked how much interest is out there to get them underway. Knowing how many old Land Rovers are out there and with the numbers coming across to N America, I sensed there may be a significant demand.
I am interested though, if this has been explored before. I suspect it has but for one reason or another has never got too far. The thoughts of members who have been there, done it would be appreciated.
