Happy days!

There wasn't a lot of space in the Jag for much else, even the Tbird had to give up a gun to fit all the avionics in its place when they were left without a home when the second seat was stuck in it. When you stand aside one it isn't that big, and the U/C takes up more than its fair share of room.
