Bummer!!!!

Had a serious stomach bug over the weekend just
getting over it now, so nothing done really, typical now
i've got some gas to use
started to strip down the bulkhead though, someone has over filled
the clutch master cylinder and took all the paint off around it

Managed to get out tonight for a bit, (finished painting the
woodwork in the bathroom), cleaned the lower part of the
engine bay bulkhead,welded a small repair plate at the bottom
then painted with chassis black, I think i'm going to spray
the lower bulkhead with stone chip first then spray with colour.
