You can see evidence of radiator water on the fan blades, water pump pulleys and cross member so, she obviously was spittin' water from somewhere but, she never overheated... Guess I'll put some water in the radiator and take her for a ride, to see how things go... Another as yet unsolved Flathead mystery…
As long as you are planning on taping up that leak, maybe get a smaller brush out, say less than 3" wide, and repaint that bumper stripe. Oh yeah, maybe they came that way from the factory. Yeah, and maybe Helen Keller worked on the striping line.
C'mon Vic, have you NO pride?
