$2000 lamp

I finally finished rebuilding the 915 for my SC, and realized how tight I am for storage space. I don't have any room for it in the garage, and it was sitting in my livingroom on the engine stand.

Solution:


the lamp base just happened to fit perfectly on the shift rod. Easy peasy!

All you have to do now is make the throttle linkage the on/off switch - and make one the axle housings a dimmer, and you are good to go!

I'm only counting the new parts that went into it. That's car enthusiast's fuzzy math

So, does the light have five settings for illumination?

And maybe one more which takes all the light out of the room if you select reverse!

Sid, I am married to a lady that does not care at all what I spend on my toys. I avoid adding up the toy prices and prefer fuzzy math. I can run a report from Quicken on any item of spending. I just don't wanna know. Years ago I ran a report on what I spent on tools. I deleted that report and never bother to add it all up anymore.
