[Shotimes] SHO wagon project #2

[shewitt@hypercon.net]

While the subframe/motor is out, I would do all of the MTX 
conversion stuff (Clutch, shifter...) I would not want to 
get the motor in and then mount/route the clutch cable 
after.

Good luck!  You are certainly going to have fun this 
winter/spring/summer...
