John,

The mileage is unknown. Since 1962 I doubt if it's seen more than a few thousand miles..the speedometer never worked.....but the 1930 engine and 4-speed were installed before we owned it.

I do not have the right tools but my best measurements show the bore to be .060 over.

It ran well enough, but was down on power...noticeable on hills, but it would do 45 on level roads...
