That pink Panther sounds familiar, was'nt it captured, and put to use by the British (?) for a while, before it broke down.... or maybe something else, not quite sure on that one.

I did'nt forget your friendly offer to help out with the pics, I'm just not sure what your best time is. Sometime Tuesday/Wednesday for me, this week.

Cheers

Tom

Since the engine is in the back and the tranny is in the front to drive the front sprockets this would have to be the transmission. If you look closely, you can see the point of attachment for the drive shaft at the top, and the "T" at the bottom where the front drive axels attach.

Its pretty rare that Cy makes an error, and today he's made two that i've seen.

, he's having an off day, which is still better then my best day.

Ach, you guys are right! Got too many fires going at once. Thanks for the point outs and keeping me honest.
