My Pete rebuild

[Nostalgic]

Just like building a house, the finishing is the most time consuming. It seems like every time I turn around, I'm trying to track down a clamp, a bolt, or something that that's 2 days out. Kind of feels like chasing happiness.

I had no history on the radiator, other than it didn't have any apparent leaks. I poked the scope inside and it looks clean. Was, and still am a little nervous about it, but I'm about 15k over budget already and have a long ways to go, so while I was tempted to just put a new one in, this will have to wait.

Did get a new fan, since the old one had a few too many nicks and chunks out of it...



Thinking I may try to get it far enough along to fire up before I install the clutch and transmission. Just in case....
