Nice

Is the bulkhead new or was the old one all good to use again

Its a refurb one from Ashtree.
Seems to be a straight fit but still requires some cosmetic work.
Still have the old one with wire loom attached to do a straight swap when new one is painted.
Then refurb the old one and sell.

Super rebuild. Not at all jealous of the 130...

Could I ask what media you are using to strip back the paint and rust? I am almost at this stage...

Smaller steel parts I can fit in sand blaster cabinet; korund
Larger steel parts that dont fit: wire brushes on angle grinder and hand held sand blaster for hard to reach sections.
Alu parts: I have then done by blasting company. Korund is to aggressive. I believe they use soda or glass pearls.
