Which issue of Hot Rod had V8 swap? 1800

There was an issue of Hot Rod where they put a V8 into a 1800. I just found a stash of magazines at a local book dealer, and couldn't find the issue. Does anyone know the actual issue date or #?

Thanks

Re: Which issue of Hot Rod had V8 swap? 1800 1962

December 1964. The article is reprinted in its entirety in the Brooklands Books Gold Portfolio series on the Volvo 1800 (1960 - 1973).

If you have problems finding a copy of the issue, email me offline and I'll fax or snailmail you a copy of the article.

Re: Which issue of Hot Rod had V8 swap? 1800

I'll try to check my old issues at home tonight -- this goes way back to the late '60s or early '70s, though, and some of those issues I have stored at my mother's house, 1400 miles from here, so if you don't hear from me again, I couldn't find it (I have _Hot Rod_ and _Road and Track_ [schizoid?) virtually complete since 1957, but stored in several places).
