He is the only on on the list that owns a 36hp bug. -- Russ Wolfe Oh no he's not. I own 1-1/2 36 Hp engine cars: a neat 1955 that has won first or second in Class and a 1949 Hebmüller which has a 25 Hp engine with 36 Hp pistons and cylinders. The latter runs perfectly, and has just been rebuilt. But no wooden push rod tubes in my engines. I have nothing to add to the matter. By the way, I own a 1964 Type 34 also.
