Monte, I'm not sure but I think they are the slimline.  The shrouds are the half shrouds.  I don't know why but the squeaks eventually disappeared...I didn't oil the shrouds.

Guess you've been living right these last few days. ;)

If the squeaks return, rather than oily oil, perhaps a quick rattle can squirt of silicone spray. I use this stuff for a variety of needs as it does not attract, capture nor hold dust and dirt.

Good idea Monte.  I'll keep that in mind.  

As for the last few days....Prepping the house for exterior paint and replacing and balancing the front tire on the Wing...Ugly Betty (the R65 is getting very lonely with wires dangling off her and no wheels on her and a few other parts that need to be put on.
