So i was driving my 78 monte the other day and it randomly died on me twice when i got home i found that my fuel pump was spraying aerated fuel imto my filter i checked all my clamps and fitting and made sure they were tight and it still did it so i thought maybe the pump had a hole in the...
To cut out the "bad spots" whole driver side behind rear axle will have to be cut off and i would likely have to find a cheap or donor rear half of the frame to cut and replace or i might as well replace the qhole thing so i was thinking along the lines of tubbing it
Im using a 5 blade clutch fan planning on going electric when i get a bigger radiatior due to the dual setup i want with the clutch fan i was told it might always run cold because it always spins just a little
Dont get discouraged at all its totally possible to be self taught my new user post explains how i got started. Just time and patience it took me like 2 years and a dozen or two tries at rebuilding a motor before i got it right (after buying a haynes manual) realized it was stupid crap i did...

Actually there is a hole in the back seat where a rodent chewed its way in it will need reupholstered the dark brown spots on the dash are sunscorch marks the car was sitting outside for a while it was dry at least if it did come from nevada so the padding in the seats may have been safe and...
Sounds similiar to how i got mine however look at everything bring up any concerns and haggle but dont open with "whats your bottom dollar" all that does is piss off the seller
First one ive seen besides mine with blue interior if you dont want it ill take the guys number id buy it for just the front seat dash and passenger front fender probably steering column too if its tilt! Lots of parts im looking for on there so if you buy and decide to sell keep me in mind
Tap water seems more likely probably calcium and lime deposits are arent corrosion city water systems use minerals to recycle waste water and make it usable with that running through the system over the years it collects in deposits if its there its in the motor too if your radiator is leaking...
How bad? Rust floating under cap? Ive seen them with just green corrosion on the inside due to being copper but if there is rust flushing is an option to a point and can get more life out of it when funds are tight but if its bad rust better off getting a new one so the rust doesnt plug it and...

So ive been thinking about the advice i was given about this and im going to pull the body off the frame. Ive seen frames online for $600 if the body is in too bad of shape when i pull it im thinking about ditching the frame replacement idea and just building a roll cage on a new frame or if the...
