Preparing Water outlet, found out that my manifold despite the same casting number as the original has not the hole for cooling water (connection to pump), therefore I try the riser (thermostat above the opening for the hole)

Hobby is gone, truck sold, was a nice time here in the forum

Re: My 1968 C-20 Golden Anniversary Project
Noooo! Say it isn’t so. Call it temporary, leave the door open just in case another truck happens to cross your path.

Re: My 1968 C-20 Golden Anniversary Project
Oh man, hadn't seen this build before, was just getting into it. I've never seen such detailed care taken in engine assembly. Good luck Gerhard. Sorry to hear that you sold it, but sometimes that has to happen. Hope to see you back. It looks like you got it all together. How did it run?

Re: My 1968 C-20 Golden Anniversary Project
You can still stop in Gerhard.

Re: My 1968 C-20 Golden Anniversary Project
I'm surprised! What's the next project Gerhard?

I knew this was going to happen :( I gave, made, sold many parts to Gerhard and tried to give him a lot of common sense advice but being a German engineer he was determined to complicate the living dung out of everything. I always wondered if he'd frustrate himself into packing it in which looks like finally happened - so sorry , too bad :( Jerry in Canada |
