Cool pics Robert! I knew you were holding out on us, that mirror shot is awesome.
Jay/James, There was a protective heat sleeve on the cable that a previous owner had installed, and Boone re-installed it. Apparently those things, when exposed to heat regularly, break down. When I took it apart in Noble, I noticed the sleeve was falling apart, and the inside had been burned away leaving only the thin aluminized outer shell.
Don/Sam, No doubt about it Jim Childs and Rod Mills saved our hides with their timely help, and generosity!
