<VV> 140 4 spd to PG question

[kenpepke at juno.com]

I drove a 63 PG convertible with a 65 140hp for years and thousands of miles in
dozens of states.  It did not 'get up and go' like the 65 4 speed CORSA it came 
from but it did at lot better than the original 102 hp PG.  I chrome plated the 
sheet metal for the conversion but did nothing internally in the engine.  Performance
was pleasing.
