I've started the first step. Removed the T Stat. I have a replacement high flow sitting at O'reilly's. Here's some pics of the rad and fane placement in relation to the shroud

As a point of discussion this car went down the line on December 28, 1967. One can only imagine the mindset of those working the line. It appears that the line workers didn't pay much attention to detail with this car. The car has never been hit however, in the past the original owner liked to show off and spun the quarters into light poles and parked cars while doing burnouts The panels were never replaced until we restored the car. It was commonplace back then to slap a bunch of bondo on and squirt some paint. we didn't go buck nutty with the bodywork trying to keep the car as it was when it was sold.
