				Can someone explain or post a picture of how the dash shield is attached on a 1911 Touring?  Thanks,  Art

The arc piece goes on the firewall.  
The flat piece goes on the leading edge of the top floorboard. They fit together like a Chinese puzzle...
Don't tell anyone,  but on mine I silver soldered the two pieces together and attached them to the firewall like the style of the later years.  I even put fake screw heads where the shield looks like it is attached to the leading edge of the top floorboard.

				Keith,  I get it now.  I don't have floorboards and without them your pictures were what I needed.   Thanks, Art
