Re: My 61 FL Apache 10

aside from that horrible front license plate, Go Seahawks!, you got quite a sweet ride my friend!
As we've both just installed new champions rads it will be cool to see what the difference, if any, is between an electric fan and a belt driven fan. I'm hoping to get a shroud on mine at some point, but will check in on yours to see if maybe a single electric fan is worth it.
also, thanks for the good exhaust photos, the X-frames on these '61s didn't leave a lot of extra space for pipes to be run! i'm contemplating building my exhaust from a kit (with the help of my welder/hot rod buddy) or just taking it into a shop.
With your x-pipe being right below the T-bar cross member, do you find you have enough clearance? I think our trucks have a similar stance and height so i'm hoping that you're not having any problems so I can copy it. thanks
