Re: My 1968 C-20 Golden Anniversary Project
Preparing Water outlet, found out that my manifold despite the same casting number as the original has not the hole for cooling water (connection to pump), therefore I try the riser (thermostat above the opening for the hole)

Re: My 1968 C-20 Golden Anniversary Project
Noooo! Say it isn’t so. Call it temporary, leave the door open just in case another truck happens to cross your path.

Re: My 1968 C-20 Golden Anniversary Project
Oh man, hadn't seen this build before, was just getting into it. I've never seen such detailed care taken in engine assembly. Good luck Gerhard. Sorry to hear that you sold it, but sometimes that has to happen. Hope to see you back. It looks like you got it all together. How did it run?
