Fixed the hand throttle plastic/delrin part and hooked up the hand brake switch wire on the handle. That isn’t a fun place to work in, I took the passenger seat out to do it. All is good now.Attachment 636659

Replacing all the rubber on my ‘65 rear quarter windows. The rubber between the glass and frame was the hardest to do and get the frames back together again. I found using factory rubber was much better than aftermarket.
