Project "Chihuahua" '65 Formula S Restoration "Estilo Mexicano"

Update: Drove 10 miles into town to a Mexican gasoline station to fill 'er up. I first warned the female attendant who inserted the hose that the fill pipe was a little finicky. Everything went fine until it shut off without warning, when a splash of fuel shot out and spilled onto one of her shoes, the ground, and the side of the quarter panel. Not a problem though (I've been flirting with Dulce Maria for years now). We did not top off the tank any further.

Now with maybe a full tank (instead of the previous 4 or 5 gallons I added recently) the fuel gauge needle moved up to right on top of furthest marked line on the gauge, which is basically the full mark. The amount added at the station was 10.8 gallons at the equivalent US dollar price of $5.35 a gallon. Not sure if it has the whole 18 gallons in it yet or not. Maybe not as accurate as I would like, but I understand "new" aftermarket in tank floats are not much better.
