Re: 1949 Chevy 3600 into a daily driver

Good for her (and you). I saw some recent activity on IG. I wondered what was the motivation behind it. Love seeing it.

Keep at it.

Thanks Man.

Our youngest, Colton, has taken a real interest in anything mechanical. He has been by my side helping me get him back on the road.



I had a cheap thermostat housing and it had started to corrode pretty bad. That was the reason for the loss of coolant years back. Replacing it turned into a bit of an adventure. 2 broken bolts.

I was able to get the first one out with an E-Z out.





The second one fought until the end. Broken E-Z outs, busted knuckles, etc. Finally had to break out the welder. Probably should have done that from the start but I had never done it before. Went pretty well after that.
