Re: 65 Short Fleet Small Window Update

In between long periods on the road for work I installed the crate engine. During hook up I found, with my vacuum tester that I had a coolant system leak. Went round and round until I decided to do the old pressurize 10PSI and soak down with soapy water. Bottom line is I have ordered a radiator from RnD, a gold vendor on this site. All reviews are good and it is a 4 row radiator. Sparky seems like a good guy to deal with.

With the systems about up we are going to start into the finish body work to get ready for paint. The goal is to be driving next spring or summer. This could slip as I have a big airplane project coming up. It is just not right when how you earn a living gets in the way of hobbies.
