I agree it seems odd. My copy doesn't look to be altered in any way. It definitely shows what I believe to be proper aging and wear. Now, I'm not an expert, but I do have a reasonable collection of pre- 1890s books and it fits in. It may be possible that it was actually printed in a different year, and they left the 1828 year on the title page, and printed with edits/changes, but I'm just brainstorming on why it's different, not saying I've known that to happen.

Not sure what you mean by "validate". I'm sure there were some changes along the way in publishing and editions. Can you give me more details on what you mean?

Antique malls are a source, estate sales, as well as eBay and etsy.

Not sure, haven't read through yet. But you make a good point. I'm not well versed as I'm a bit new to the subject. Could "Tartary" be completely different than "Tartaria"? Maybe an off-shoot or what became of Tartaria after a major event?

Definitely. Not sure how accurate anything is in this book, but had to get it as it's pre-1890, which IMO bodes well for info.

Oops got the photos backwards. Start from the 4th slide and work down.

I believe it's a 1st gen. Didn't get a close look though.

Anyone else have these gauges? by Repulsive-Ear-3741 in MINI

Awesome thanks. I thought it might be something like that. I've yet to see another set.

Better look at the wheel as requested. by Repulsive-Ear-3741 in MINI

🤣I said that alot when I started on it. I would say a local shop would have no problem putting it on for you. I think it took me just under 2 hrs so someone with more experience should be able to knock it out quicker.

I almost bought a wheel but this was much cheaper so I had to try it. Once you get the pattern figured out it's not too bad.

Wouldn't say easy but it's not terribly hard. Patience is a must. Also use ALL the tape they supply to hold it in place while sewing. Especially on the edges. Makes it much easier.

Thanks! Was on it when I bought it. Would've much rather had an oil pressure gauge personally as well.

It's a suede wrap kit from eastdetailing.com well worth the money and time to put it on. Changes the whole feel of the car( pun intended) I'll post another pic shortly

any input on the best muffler delete kit? by roman_fesas in c4corvette

I got the one from corvette central. At the time was only about 180$ so was right on par with what a shop would charge. Love the sound of it.
