<VV> surgery update (lon wall)

[Charles Lee at Prop Per]

What cross-reference catalog did they use to find the replacement parts ?

He can't run in the "all original" category any more, but at least he's 
still running, and can help us keep our cars running (albeit with 
non-original parts too, as required)

The penguin parts might have worked, but the doc would have had to do some 
welding to make it fit, but do-able.

Glad he's out of the woods though, really,
Chaz
