Also we finally got the head lights for it rebuilt, dad didn't want the chrome ones so we got the old ones re-nickle and put back together. Heres some pictures. |
Mine did the same thing. Eliminated everything motor related, even flow tested the radiator and it was good...It was the radiator.
Had it re-cored and she runs cool as a cucumber since.
