OT'S 47-51 ??? Rebuild ??
the old trucker:
Can anyone tell me the dimensions of how big a radiator I can put in my bomber ?? Maybe my local rad shop can custom build one if they had a few measurements.
OT.'s trying to cool er' down.
the old trucker:
I am starting to pick away at my engine, while waiting to get the belly pan welded in place. I have the manifold off to allow more access to clean the motor. I also got the carb in soak trying to get the dark black gas stains off. My questions are;
# 1 Is it any good to put a high heat primer on before painting the engine ?
# 2 What about the manifold ?
# 3 Swamp Dawg I noticed you didn't paint your manifold. Any particular reason ??
# 4 Will I need a brush to get at hard to reach places ??
# 5 Oldsledz, Gror, Dawg, what paint did you use on yours ??
Any comments on how to do this ?? I think I will paint her OLD FORD BLUE . Canadian Tire has it in stock in spray bombs.
Or should I get a quart of paint mixed & sprayed on ??
gror:
Thats hoe I did it ,with spray bombs,Old ford Blue It turned out awesome, and I didnt use any primer.
the old trucker:
Thanks Gror. When I'm ready I'll get a half dozen cans. By the way did you put anything on your manifold ?? People are telling me it will only burn off. What about high heat paint for stoves ??
OT.
the old trucker:
Gror did you make your engine mounts the same way Swamp Dawg did his ?? It looks like he used the stock mount & added to it. Am I right ?? I started cleaning up the exhaust today, getting ready to paint. What did you use on your manifold & is it staying on ??
OT.
