I've had a few bargains in the last week. I've bought a head gasket and bolt set off of E-Bay for the when I remove the head, which came with all the gaskets on the head, plus head bolts and even valve stem oil seals - £15. Second one was my new welder, I bought a Clarke 90en dual purpose MIG welder for £130. Finally I bought a new battery tray plus bulk head section from my local motor factors - £11 next day. Bargain.

So today I set about removing the old battery tray, removing the surrounding paintwork and shaping my new tray. Not as easy as it seems, because the tray is spot welded on to some arms which are welded further down the bay. So in the end I cut away the tray, leaving the metal on the arms and ground it down a bit. Observing closer it seems someone has been here before, but obviously not done a good job. Finished article is a lovely snug fit!
