Golden View's wheelhouse, Jimmy "100" Woolfe's build
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.
My old man installed the wiring in at least one of Jimmy's wheelhous's
Angus, if it was the Golden View's then he did a good job.....all working 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.
