    Are you just checking ground on the Rad or in the coolant? FYI my system is 12v (Thank God)

    Got the Rad cleaned up, removed all of the JB Weld and old solder and took it to a shop in Courtney. They are going to resolder it, clean it and pressure test it.

    Rosie the Riveter Build.

    I love the idea of sticking with the brass/copper rad because the system vibrates so much but the rad I have is out of the 6cyl gas 2f not the 4 cyl diesel 3b so the outlet is on the passenger side not the driver side. That made me get a little creative with my coolant piping. I would rather a...

    Rosie the Riveter Build.

    So. Took the cruiser hunting last week. Drove it up past Port Alice and out to the west coast. It worked great until the bolts holding the Alternator on broke off and then it overheated and blew the rad. I pulled over, in the middle of absolute nowhere and pulled the rad out and was looking...

    Update. Sorry for the LOOOOOOOONG delay, I am still alive. We bought a piece of property up island from a hoarder and have been doing a lot of clean up, demo and garbage removal. The place does have a shop thought and a tonne of potential. The water pump went on the cruiser just as we were...

    Tractors

    Just dug up a bunch of history on the HD-7W. What I know about it so far is that it's a military surplus machine that was bought by The Utah Construction Company, who was the main contractor on the Alaska Highway, sometime around March 5, 1951. It is then likely that it was shipped up to be...

    3b Turbo Flange Gasket Advice

    If you cant find one that works you can make one out of thin sheet metal and just peen a ridge in it around the centre opening. Not as good as OEM but will work.

    Favourite Tool

    It works very very well. Much better than tge electrical testers because its not looking for electrical …magnatism …(🤷🏻‍♂️🤔) Instead its following a radio signal running down the wire. We spent three days trying to find a broken wire in a rock truck that would intermittently apply and...

    Come over for a BBQ and we'll win her over. this place feels like it is in the middle of nowhere but i reality I made it to Qualicum in, a verry hurried, 15 min yesterday. Ya this guy left empties everywhere. We've filled 10-12 large construction bags with empty root bear bottles (apparently...

    My wife and I got so sick of Vic we just bought a 10.5 acre property north of Qualicum. We have been working 6months on 6 months off in the Yukon living in a wall tent so that ruined us for the city. We had to get out. We found this place of Craigslist. It was an absolute train wreck...
