Well ready for my next Plan of Attack
Gonna start putting Body back together, well try anyway, more fun and games coming o_O
I've got the bulkhead just about levelled up, with brackets, there is quite a gap at bottom, is this excessive or about normal ? and do I close this with washers ? I did try a spacer where bracket bolts to floor plate where pedals are but it made this gap wider so took it out, do I have to use the spacers ?
I have not tightened anything up yet , Just checking if there's anything else I need to do first, once this is levelled, I will put rear tub on then join up with seat box and floor plates to line them up too.
That's the Plan Anyway

I wouldn’t worry about how plumb the bulkhead is. You need to fit the tub and side frames before thinking about the bulkhead at all, and even then without the roof, windscreen, and side panels it’s still a guess.

The gap looks to be similar to what I have on mine. One side has 3 washers, the other has 2.

Thanks. Was going to start with the Tub first but one of the mechanics at local garage says he always starts with Bulkhead first, each to their own I suppose.
Will leave it where it is now and get Tub on, I did have tub , seatbox, floors and tunnels on temporary a few weeks ago and everything seemed to be lined up, or Very close anyway, hope its the same when I get them back on.
