    Why was Jimmy known as 100?....As far as I know there are only 2 of these wheelhouses left , unless anybody knows better.  I think the original wooden wheelhouses looked better, but I think the Jimmy Woolfe design still looks good. The formica mock wood lining inside has also stood the test of time pretty well.

    I wish I could say the same for Dawn Pearl. I stripped all of the wiring out as part of the wheelhouse rebuild and now I need to start from scratch. The old man taught me more than enough to be able to do the job, I just find that as I get older and my eyesights not what it was I dont seem to enjoy these wee footery jobs very much.
