60Patrol

I had to take the petcock hole a little larger, and brazed in a 3/4" brass bushing, but it is holding water as it should and keeping the old girls cool. Thanks for the assist.

Stupid question of the day...

I recently purchased a 1973 G60, which was "restored" in Columbia and shipped up through Florida. I had it delivered to my home in Colorado, and unfortunately picked the coldest week of the winter to take delivery. My initial experience with the truck has been less that stellar, as it appe...
