That’s the anniversary of the Battle of Waterloo, not a very auspicious day but it looks like I’ll be able to make it. 😛

How’s June 18 for y’all? That’s a Saturday.
We could do like Roy’s old team did: half hour stints on the rack for oil changes or suspension adjustments or what have you. I’ll put some beer in the cooler and some burgers on the grill.If June 18 is NG suggest another. -

A few hours fettling after work and I loaded her up.
I can just about walk upright under Bridget when she’s up with the top up. If I put the windshield down I’ll for sure get one more notch of lift, and that’ll give me full stand. Also planning on getting a tough old office chair with wheels, so I’ll be able to slide under anything else…Very psyched.

Lot of work and a fair amount of money. I ended up using a white-faced 5-inch Classic Instruments unit, plus a ’73 Bug Speedometer, which is just shy of the same diameter.

OK, so the stick will tell you the stroke, but you’d have to know the bore too.
The compressibility of the air is going to be a factor, but you’d also have the combustion chamber volume and compression ratio to contend with.I am thinking Roy’s Balloon method would not tell you the difference between a 1905 and a 1915 cc engine, but it should be… -

Yeah, nice. The painted headlight buckets and grill slats are both nice details. Your car has a lot of nice details.
