Actually I took her out for the first time in the driveway on Sunday. Brought the temp up full to 180' about 12 mins( this separate temp gauge works with the oil pressure and tach )

Radiator leaking now on top with a split. Bought JB Weld - was good until the third run, a second split was leaking.

New radiator is now on order -

Then decided to hit the side streets. Was tough without the power steering! All was good for about 3 mins - then the fuel regulator was acting up.

Stalled out - no gas...

its time to call the pit crew for help!

I call the wife...I go - honey; she goes - ok where are you; knowing that from in the past experience, things are out of check.

Two old guys out on the street - see me grab a gas can from the wife's car ( thinking maybe I'm out of gas? ) They are laughing it up!

probably the best laugh they had in years -
