Default Another Thank you

Another big thank you to Charley NY for doing such a great job rebuilding the carburetor for my 49 8BA. I drove the car from Seattle to Victorville Ca. a trip of 1200 miles and I averaged 24mpg. I was sure glad I had no problems because my wife was with me and she doesn't kindly to me fixing the car on the side of the road.

24 MPG! That is great mileage. Surely you have overdrive.
