       8)
       Can you not just put a thin skim of filler on the bulkhead to
       fill in the pits?

       It's more pimpled than pitted, thinking and looking at it today
       not a lot will be visible when the wings and bonnet are on, most
       or the roughness is pimples not pits.

       a worn 100 grit in angle grinder but take it lightly to only
       remove high spots

       No paint on today, galv smoothed out a little, seam sealer on so
       waiting for it to go off I made a start on removing the 200TDi
       from the donor vehicle.
       Radiator out all pipes disconnected and a start made on
       splitting from the bell housing, most of the bolts and nut's off
       the studs that I can see, but I've a horrible feeling that there
       will be one at the top of the housing which will be hard to get
       at. Am I correct?
       Will I need to be smashing the plastic dash open and cutting
       through the body work to get at another fastener?

       Jack the engine up, remove the engine mounts and lower the
       engine, you should then be able to reach down the back to the
       bellhousing bolts if you have thin arms.  Otherwise it's lots of
       extensions over the gearbox from underneath...
