Thanks Allen, I guess I’ll have to pull my carpet up.  I found Ed’s post but I have a bench seat so, my problem is a bit different.  

Roy. The E-brake cable tubes go back along the top of each side of the tunnel to just before the rear end of the tunnel. From there they head out the left and right side of the pan/chassis.

Great pictures,and commentary Ed. Looks like Yall had a great time.

Thanks for asking about me. Ride home was fine. Towing was the right thing to do, especially for my marriage. Fantastic weekend, guys.

Bill. That is NOT the signal for “Clear Prop!”   

My favorite shot of the weekend (sorry Bill):

Glad everyone made it home right–we all did, right? Anyone hear from Gabor?

My back was killing me.  Had to get horizontal.  Did the pics of you up in the plane come out?  

Roy, you left just a little too early…There was plenty of room in here for you. Can you Photoshop?

Neither knucklehead was injured. Those old Gullwing cars had superior rollover protection!

He “took the news….in stride”??  Anyone who attended the Auto & Air Show and saw the 300SL Gullwing will know why I am posting this.  “In stride”?  ..Gimme a break
