    Guys, I live in Arkansas and after I recover from injuries and learn to walk again. I'm going to make it a point to visit Iron Trap Garage if that is at all possible. Yall are such a inspiration, at least to me.

      I used old project cars for recovery tools. It helps a lot. Gives you something to strive for and something to get up and do everyday. Today is two years since my neck surgery. As of today what started then is out of control now. Old shitty cars are great for PT and mental health. I wish you the best of luck.

      @@gseyank100 I have a 1930 nash and a 1946 1 1/2 ton truck and a 1976 GMC 2 ton. I completely agree with you I've worked on them before my accident, and will concentrate more so after this bump in the road. Great comment.

    When I first built my car, it had 11:1 pistons etc. and when you got over 2k rpm the temp gage would start to climb. I didn't run a thermostat and noticed that when I would slow down it would cool down. I took a thermostat and cut the plunger out and used the plate as a restrictor and I worked like a charm.

    For reluctant window tracks use Dry Glide, teflon spray from I think CRC.
    Do you have a thermostat?? Temp going up and down probably means NO. T stat is the most important part of the colling system.
    This car really needs paint and whatever trim it needs. So nice to look like crap!!

    you know she's a lot happier since her heart transplant being that she didn't leave you stranded along the side of the road this time. since it only cut out going uphill, mebbe there's an issue with the pick up tube in the fuel tank. i was working on a '70 c10 pick up for a customer that had a similar issue with the in cab tank. it had been off the road for a few years, and come to find out, an inch or two of the pickup tube had rusted and broken off, so when you'd make a sharp turn with under a 1/4 of a tank of gas, the fuel would slosh to the one side and starve the engine for fuel. i guess at one time there was a lot of water in the bottom of the tank, because it was really crusty inside. that was a head scratcher let me tell you.

    Hi guys One shop I worked in had a poster in the lunchroom Saying "We do the job right, because we do it twice". LOL Its good to see it running again. From the video it looks good to drive. I'm guessing it may have a partially blocked fuel filter or the fuel pump diaphragm is hard and is about ready to give up. Do the gas tanks vent through the cap? I had a car in the shop 20+ years ago that would do 25km and stop, wouldn't start for 10 minutes and then start and run well for another 25 kms. The owner had put a locking gas cap on the car and it was creating a vacuum in the tank because the OE cap was ventilated. LOL

    your man will think he died and went to heaven !!! I used them with 1 man installing MACK TRUCK ENGINES , what a breeze !!
    that repeating loop chain is a pain in the ass , and it's always getting caught on stuff and is slow as molasses in January !!!!
    I'm sure you can round one up on the " cheap " !! give it some serious thought , you won't regret it !!!!!!

    Kinda puzzling. Seems like the coolant is going through the system too fast to be properly be cooled yet you are using thermostats. Like someone else suggested, maybe try adding another temp sensor on the second side just to be sure you are reading accurate temps and consider slowing the water flow through the system with smaller pulleys since you have the low gears causing the high revs.
