Blacky could your metal guru make a few of the patch pieces for the upper bit of the firewall, I need both side for the Reverend, there was someone on eBay selling them a while ago but no longer available, yes I probably could make them but don't want to screw it up :lol: :lol: :lol:
Happy to pay for them of course.

He can make ANYTHING- which bit do you need ? Can it be cut out of a wreck ??
I started with nothing and still have most of it left.

Mate the bit where the wing of the sub chassis bolts up to the firewall above where the leg fits into the firewall, the bit in the photo you showed that you said just need a bit of sand blast to clean it up, the Reverend's need replacing.

Does that make any sense??????????

Yeah - got one at home, the firewall cut I used for setting up the hidden wiper motor and the cable clutch setup etc has those bits - I will check if they are any good when I get home.

Funnily that was the only good bit either side of the firewall on my van. So I cut them out and grafted them on to the donor firewall and plenum cut that I then grafted back in. Omg lol lol.

Thanks Blacky.

Clay last big bit on the Reverend is the firewall, dash and plenum replacement, Keith is going to do it for me so I don't stuff it up after all the other work I have done and I want to get the donor bit sorted for him and that bit is the only bad bit on the donor, typical isn't it :roll: :roll:
