Barb, the guys are right, just find any old time radiator shop and they can solder or silver solder that back on for almost no money. Don't let them tell you that you need more than that, if they...

You're a really nice lady, glad to do it for you. I've gotten so much enjoyment from your build and your spirit of keeping to it, that I had to give something back to you. :D

Now I have to hide...

Barb, tomorrow swing by the Advance Auto store at 100 Winters St there in West Point. There is a socket on hold for you. It is all paid for and is yours. I spoke to Matt at 804-843-4143, he is off...

Barb, we are going to teach you a trick we guys have used for years so our spouses don't raise cain................HIDE THE RECEIPT !!!!!!!!! :cool::LOL::LOL:

Don

Barb, it is cheap too, like $ 3.00 a can that treats 12 quarts of coolant. Autozone and Advance both carry it.

Don

Who would have thought our Barb would be the terror of the neighborhood ! :eek::LOL:

Barb, something we have started using is Bars Leaks water pump lubricant and anti rust additive. What a...

When you say "rather quickly" Barb, how quickly? Did you change the thermostat? Looks like you are getting some time put on that engine, very good.:)

Don

These women are such teases !!!!!!!!:D:D

Don

Well, it's about time !! I thought I would be dead before you ever posted a video of that baby running. :LOL: Sounds great. Now we want one of it going down the road.


Don

See what we guys get for giving you gals the right to vote, Barb ! :LOL::LOL:

The thing that has been very interesting about your build thread is that you aren't afraid to admit when something...

Barb, there is a thread on another forum where a lady has been "restoring" a 32 Ford that was built back in the day...........it is an old hot rod. She reminds me a lot of you in her determination...

Yep, we've waited a long time for this day ! :D:D

Don

Maybe your neighbor was talking about the seals in your ears. Those will be ringing for a while. :LOL::LOL:

Don

Fire that puppy up, Barb.:D Tons of us have done exactly what you want to do with no problems.

Don

I hear that from time to time, but I think it is one of those urban myths. Look at all the cars running around with open headers all the time (my old 23 and my 27, from time to time) I've heard...

Vote number 2 for Alumaseal. Years ago when I was trying to keep the 302 in my 27 going for a little longer I developed some radiator leaks from it shaking around. I used Barrs Leaks and later on...

Barb, maybe I missed something, but wasn't that mechanic supposed to get it running and usable for you? What did he do, hand it back half finished for you to wrap up?

I agree with Steve, I would...

I like mechanical gauges for their accuracy but hate them for bringing fluids into the car, as the guys mentioned. I think it was my 63 Pontiac that had a mechanical oil pressure gauge and the...

These little clearance issues come up every time you try to put 10 pounds of something in a 5 pound bag. :) Looks like your guy is on the right track and a hole in the hood won't be all that bad. ...

All that pain will be gone once you put it in drive and get that first ride, Barb. They tell me it's like childbirth.........but you have more experience with that than me. :LOL::LOL:

Don

Next time you see her she will be running!!!!!!! :D:D:D Big day!! :)

Don

I have had you in my mind lately, Barb, I know you have been struggling with getting this car running for a while now. Cars can be frustrating as h***, as we know only too well from the demons we...

And your point is????????????????? :LOL::LOL::LOL:

Don

Barb, you have all of us trying to reach through the computer screen to help you get this thing running! :D It looks like you are getting close to solving all the little gremlins though. You have...

Barb, see if you are getting spark to the plugs. Pull number one spark plug boot off and slip a number 2 phillips screw driver or old spark plug in the boot. Hold it about a quarter inch away from...
