THE COOLING SYSTEM IS COMPLETE

We installed the radiator and connecting hoses to the block last week.  The heater connections were completed today.  
The copper pipe shown in the photo to the right connects the discharge side of the water pump to the heater coil.  Another hose connects the discharge side of the heater coil to the block, thus, recirculating the heated water in the engine.
The heater hose connections to the coil are shown in the photo to the left.  The original style wire hose clamps were used throughout the system.
The cooling and heating systems are now complete.











The archive listing of this blog contains detailed step-by-step photos and narratives regarding this restoration since it began late last December.  Please direct comments and questions to tommystoplesscars@yahoo.com.

Back soon...
