Listers,

For the last few months I've been toying with the installation of a cruise 
control system in my 64 Spitfire.  Well, tonight I'm happy to announce that 
the system is in and working.

I was able to do the installation in such a way that there were no 
modifications made to the car itself.  I used existing bolt holes and 
mounting points through out.  All wiring is plug in with no cutting and 
splicing.  The switch assembly for the cruise control module is mounted on 
the steering column just as in the newer vehicles. 

If any one is interested I'll be writing up the procedure on how to install it, 
including pictures and part numbers and where to get them.  It might take 
me a while to get this information all together with decent pictures but I'll 
eventually get it done.

I took the car out for a test drive tonight and it worked extremely well, nice 
and smooth.  Once I get the OD installed in the car it should be a very nice 
highway cruiser!

Hopefully in the next few days I can at least get some pictures posted to my 
web page.
