Default Re: Biscayne Resto Project

Rick,
You probably already know it but make sure there is no eng paint and only bare metal where the lower radiator hose attaches. I didn't do that on one car, drove it to the pavillions, after five mins of sitting the lower hose blew off because of the slick paint. Made a big mess, burned my girlfriend, the only person out of the crowd standing around to get splashed. Very embarrasing with all the people standing around and I couldn't decide who to attend to the girlfriend or the car. Fortunately a bunch of car guys pitched in cleaning up the car and I attended the girl. Withing 2 secs a lawyer approached her to offer her his services in sueing me. Anyway I have a normal hose clamp on the bottom and a tower clamp on the topside now.
