What is a quill shaft? Don't recognize the term.

BTW, the Alvis Stalwart is probably worse to repair. The engine is a Rolls Royce inline 8 UNDER the rear deck. Except for a few final drive and steering components, everything else is inside a semi-armoured monocoque boat hull. And the edge is eyelevel off the ground.
