The Musket speedo hits 160kmh for the first time, thanks to a better clutch!

So I'm heading back home on Summit street Monday evening and on an impulse, got on the freeway. Opened her up. The  5 plate clutch, which has bedded in nicely in the past months, aided and abetted the improved transfer of power. The deepening roar sounded absolutely divine. With god as my witness, saw the needle steadily turn all the way to 160kmh, which is as far as the speedo goes. Wish you guys could have a go. Aaaaah.

I've got a sixty four Ford Falcon that has a speedometer that registers up to 120Mph. Something I've always found lamentable as it's top speed is about 75mph. Always nice when it's the other way around. Now you just need to get a GPS speed reading so you can see if you really have joined the ton up club :)

Hi guys!
Thanks Pramodh...it's my favorite alphabet too!
Tom- cool car! I briefly owned a 1950 Plymouth Special Deluxe...graceful curvaceous mature woman. Flathead straight six that was so quiet that you couldn't tell if she was idling. I miss her...
