Hi David.

Thanks for the measurements. I hope to get stuck into the clutch in the next week or so in readiness for the Australia Day parade.

So it sounds like you took your Chev to the UK? That must be a story in itself with customs/shipping etc.

Yes the L/L Chev is as strong as an Ox and a pleasure to drive but it does demonstrate the chasm b/w modern and older vehicles. I take my hat off to the drivers that used Chev's on the Adelaide to Darwin run and in North Africa 1940-1942. Heat, time it takes from A to B and the frequent stops to check all is in order.

All part of the fun driving them knowing the difficulties expericened by war time drivers.
