Notes: 1. The artwork is compliments of BONNETS UP, 5736 SPRING
          STREET,  CLINTON MARYLAND 20725.

       2. Since both sided of the car are mirror images, each numbered     
          item is duplicated on the other side of the car.

       3. To remove the back cross brace, remove the rear fender well from
          the chassis mount.  This leaves a U of the cross brace and the 2
          chassis mounts.  There are 2 screws (1c) at each corner.
