trying to get my logbook
So I took my 1966 2-headlight GTV with it's 2l engine to CVAR this past weekend for it's maiden voyage. Ran great 'til I blew up the close ratio dogbox. Hadn't ever driven a dogbox before, seemed a little finicky and certainly delicate given the results, but otherwise the car ran great.
So then came time to get my logbook...
the car weighed in at 2062lbs and CVAR wants the 1.2lbs/ltr rule in effect starting next year and seems quite willing to start with me. Next they want either 4-headlights on the car or proof of a 2-headlight/2litre running pre 1972.
So I wonder if the discussion of the 1969 1750's earlier in the chain might be the answer. Were those 1969 cars 2-headlight vehicles and if I were to simply swap out the bottom half of the engine does that move me to the 1769*1.2=2135lbs targeted weight group solving both problems, for the most part?
