1962 Project Visit

Spend a very happy couple of hours this afternoon helping to remove the bulkhead and radiator, plus do a little in-depth exploration of the engine.

Below, the bulkhead now off and resting on the chassis. The bulkhead, which appears to be in very good condition rust-wise, will soon be off for refurbishment. A decision has been made to most likely replace the existing chassis with a new galvanized one, for the sake of worry-free longevity. After this, the engine was drained of coolant and the radiator removed, leaving easy access to every part of the engine.

The, um, wiring loom, soon to be removed entirely. This will be replaced with a new loom from Autosparks.
