Re: Dip stick 1934 Roadster
Thanks, 8 pints makes sense as the old manual says 1 gallon.

Re: Le Mans tools and tool deck
Hi again, I also have one of the 4A versions on the left, this should be easier to make with only a slight variation to your jig and do the same job - I need to get all the bits I have screwed down in place, another small job for a late night.
