Seat post modified and installed on the Teledyne (and some top tube cable housing holders)

Had to cut down the seat post (make it shorter).  Then had to sand down the diameter so that it would slip down the tube smoothly.  I don't know if the seat post tube on the bike is slightly out of round or the seat post was just too large a diameter.   After sanding, it installed nice and smoothly and down far enough for me to be able to ride this larger frame (seat post has to be pushed down pretty far).



Also installed these steel cable holders to the top tube.  There was a "stain" or shadow where there used to some clamps before someone stripped this bike down.  Bought these at the last Whittier bicycle swap meet.  They fit pretty much perfectly.
