Re: Drews 67
Great information! Thanks! My battery has been relocated to under the hood so I don't have to worry about super long cables. My grandpa installed a second heater under the driver's seat. It heats the driver's legs and the back of the cabin really well.
I will try to put the old fitting into the new radiator hose.... will let you know how that goes.
Anyone know how much paint is needed to paint the whole patrol? Complete outside one color (red). and then the interior will be red except dash panels and floor will be black. I will be using a decent automotive spray system my brother has.
Thanks!

Re: Drews 67
Wow, it has been WAY too long since my last post. I have slowly been chipping away at the long list of projects over the last year and this week I finally got to the part of putting new gas in the tank and hooking up the battery.... She fired up and idled great!
She hasn't ran in over 10 years. My grandpa got choked up when he heard it running. I have to bleed the brakes and then I will test her on the road! Pictures will follow once that's all done
