[s-cars] driveshaft

[Mark Turczyn]

Theodore-

I  believe I used the Porsche CV straight up with 
no modification.  I have a vague memory that I 
removed it- perhaps to grease it better and got 
to use my pinch plyers that gives it the right 
deformation at the joint.

If I did use a different boot it is long gone out of my memory banks.
