My (UK based) Apal was bought - semi-finished - which had some good and bad points! I'm now going for a 2l Subaru conversion, so the broken type 1 1600 will be removed. There isn't a proper bulkhead between the engine bay and and the rear 'seat' area. There is a really useful cubby hole behind the seating area made from plywood, but I feel there should be some division between that and the engine bay. The Subaru engine maybe isn't as noisy and hot, but should I have something in between?
