Couple of shots of my trusty old '64 single cab,




Engine is a 2007cc with a freeway flyer gearbox with stock reduction boxes, goes very well loaded up full of swapmeet stuff.

Dave, How did you manage to have a 2007cc motor in a car on Historic plates? I thought it had to be a stocker?

Thanks

Steve

The car hides it's talent very well. Unless you asked you would not notice that it has had the extra horses hidden away. Well done Dave, your car is an inspiration.

Steve,
I have a stock 1500cc engine for rego time, the other engine goes in if I have a trip to Sydney full of swapmeet gear, so I can get up all the hills.

The 2007cc engine is a 78mm stroke crank with 90.5mm pistons, it is very tired, I pulled it out today for a rebuild, and slipped in my spare 1776cc engine which has more than enough power to pull hills in top gear.

The freeway flier gearbox is a late 1300 beetle swing axle gearbox with a 3.88 ring and pinion from an "L" bug, this gives you just over 3000rpm at 60 mph, still using the reduction boxes for the stock look.

Dave i think you have to many toys and you need to share them around, so i will volunteer to look after the ghia.

dave mate one car i drool over ever time i see it i absolutely love it!!! its an inspiration to get our 60 single cab looking similar!!!
cheers
