What is the 'normal' way of sealing off the boot (and fuel tank) from the occupants space in a Mk1 Escort as per the requirements of the regulations??
I see 3 ways;
- fill in the various holes in the standard panel
- remove all the standard panel including the parcel shelf and replace with an aluminium piece
- remove only the vertical part of the standard panel and replace with aluminium
Is the existing panel a structural item? I suspect it would be best to leave the parcel shelf in place and just fill those holes and only replace the vertical section.
I probably want to move or reshape that horizontal section anyway to allow the tank to fit better (subject to tank design) plus it has to come off the fit the turrets.
Comments, suggestions and experiences?????? Any pictures of the way you did it?
