Default Made for 33 Fords

The roads out here are just made for our old 33,
We have been away to the Mt Isa Rodeo, the biggest one outside the USA.
After a week there we are heading home on roads like these,
Today 307 miles with only one servo and a petrol bowser that took the c/ card,not staffed.
33 ran good at 50-55 mph all day.
33 has used about 1/8 on the stick,and no water after the coolant issue the other week.it sure could do with a good wash,but with the water shortage out here that will wait till we are home

Not sure what the miss is after heating up ?.
