My goof. It was pretty much the same shot as Larry's. I'm not sure if an 87 would have that rectangular slot next to the speaker grid where the belt passes though. I'll send a shot of that directly to Denis. I'm a little wary of sharing Dropbox stuff. Always share the wrong stuff to the wrong people. Funny to think of email as old technology.

I'll have to see if there is a setting to allow picture attachments, but if you have any to share in the short term please link them as Larry did or send them directly to the person requesting the pics. You can post to the list (without the picture attached) indicating you sent something so others know there is a response. We have old cars, get used to this old mailing list technology!!
