Thread: Bulkhead variations on series III

Some of the UK mobs (like Scorpion Racing)sell a bulkhead removal part... might be worth having a look at one of those and see if it'd be the same as a county option

BULKHEAD REMOVAL BAR

Enables you to put your seat back further.

So for those of you with extra long legs....

Available with fitting instructions and can be completed by a competent D.I.Y

G'day All, I think he mean't Bulkhead/firewall, as he stated he wanted to bolt it onto the chassis cheers Dennis

series II and IIa will bolt on and are much stronger than the series iii

hinges for screen frame are different and not interchangeable if my memory serves me right

and the door hinges are different, but are interchangeable.

the dash is different as there is no plastic ....

speedo cable retaining clip is different...

few knobs buttons and switches to alter but is all doable.

Yes thats right Dennis

Is a station wagon bulkhead a 5 seater?

At the moment it's just a tidy up for rego

I suggest the best place to look would be the Series 3 Parts Catalogue (I know there is one available on line but I don't have the reference). As far as I know there are three Series 3 bulkheads - 4 cylinder, 6 cylinder and Stage 1. All will bolt on the chassis and fit most other panels, but each requires different floor and transmission tunnel panels.

I cannot see what the relevance of the bulkhead is to the number of seats.

Dobbo, are you wanting to have a 5+ seater vehicle/ bulkhead and fit a renovated chassis, motor, hard-top etc? If so, perhaps just getting the extra 2 seats engineer certified might be easier? I've seen a Series III V8 hardtop with that setup.

Thanks JD
Perhaps I have my terminology wrong The tub where the seats are is this still classed as the Bulkhead?
