Quick update.....
Had a good day at it yesterday.....
- Belts replaced,
- stainless heat shield fitted,
- new rad cap,
- headlights removed and wiring is easily repaired and there’s power getting there
Car now gets up to temp (although the gauge is not working yet, the coolant is flowing and the fans kicking in and out.
I’ve adjusted the mixture the best I can and she sounds pretty good. (Bung now installed)
Starts from cold and hot.
So it’s coming together quite quickly! Thanks to all that have advised and helped out thus far.
Here she is idling (the red hose is temporary while I build the “self burping” system)
