Doug,

Please do continue to post stuff about your Standard FG.  I too have a 
top door Velo that I bought from the original builder.  Since I didn't 
build it, any info that is passed along here is of value to me.  Thanks!

My bell crank points straight up and there's a lovely 90 degree angle there.
