If not the cable or speedo mechanism, I think the only thing left
is the speedo gear in the tranny. Of course, I could be wrong...
Seems like I saw "somewhere" a GPS receiver rigged to drive an
analog mechanical speedometer, or maybe that's wishful thinking.

No it's been all apart and has a new cable. I cleaned
it all up and lubricated the wick. Sometimes it even stays on
zero for a few blocks and then pops up.

Sounds like your speedometer and/or cable needs a little
cleaning and lubrication.
50 years of wear and tear from internal friction versus a
near instantaneous satellite signal.

Yep the miles should be good as I'm using
Garmin. My speedo must have an internal issue as it
bounces around and doesn't stay steady. Garmin shows
about 5% fewer miles than the speedo.

Rich, hope your road trip continues
with much enjoyment...no issues. You sure your
miles are correct? That mpg doesn't sound right.
Brutus is getting better mpg than that, and I have
3:55 rear gears --28" diameter rear tires. And a few
mpg abuses with spirited accelerations! Have
fun........................... ....MO

Hi Rich,
Crazy idea.
Run a two barrel converter plate
on your intake and get yourself a
Holley two barrel. Maybe just for
the long trips. My guess is with
a nice air cleaner no one would
even notice when popping into car
shows.
By rules we
have to run an adapter plate / two
barrel on the circle track car and
our motors run strong. Just
sayin'

After all
these years I finally got LeRoar
ready for the road. My wife and
I traveled up to our old town of
Harrison, NE way up in the NW
corner of NE. It was Sioux
County fair time and they had a
parade on Saturday. We entered
LeRoar in the parade and had a
nice time. We drove a total of
1130 miles and averaged 11.3mpg
with a per mile gas cost of 22
cents. It did run well but
obviously I should be able to
get better mpg since it has been
tamed down. I have 3:23 gears,
2000 stall, SS-X manifold, 264
cam and a 600 Eddy which is
leaned down to about position 5
on the chart. I'm considering
trying a 500 Eddy. I do have a
stock converter which only has
about 500 miles on it and I
could swap it in. But that
sounds like work! Anybody have
any input on that idea?
In October
my wife and I will drive
LeRoar down to Houston for a
Halloween Car Show. That will
be about a 2000 mile trip.
It's good to start driving it
more. I'd be glad to share
some pictures but windows 10
and I don't get along well.
Maybe computers and I don't
get along well !
