Gentleman,
I can not thank you enough. You guys are a big help on this. Doug, wow, thanks for all the time you have spent on this issue. I have to return the borrowed truck and trailer this weekend (300 miles one way) and plan to start attacking it Monday night. I will keep you all posted.

Please stay tuned. I have been working a lot of overtime at work, so I don't have any answers yet. I will let you all know what I find as soon as I nail it down. Thanks again for all you help.

God Bless,
Ed

Hello Everyone,
Sorry to have been gone so long. I still have not taken out my tranny. Between working 12 hr days, and trying to settle in and build my new marriage right I haven't had a spare moment. Besides I have a couple of other 64s that can't move on their own and I didn't want to do it to this one too untill I know I have the time and resources to put it back together right away.
I have to run right now, again thanks for your help and I'll keep you posted.

Thanks,
God Bless,
Ed

Hello .... Oh let me tell you the second time around is 50 fold more work to get things aclimated together into one family. My new wife is well woth it as she has a heart of gold, but after both being single parents we are both pretty independent and hard headed (she thinks I'm the only one hard headed )

Yea, not much progress.


Except for tonight , I put on a 6 blade fan for better cooling and mounted a auxilary tranny cooler. I would like to plumb it into the return line to the tranny however wasn't sure which line it was. It was after 10:00 and my wife was waiting dinner (she did give up at 10) so I called it quits and came home. (besides I needed more hose).

So a couple of questions about the Cruiseamatic.

1. Which line )front or back) from the tranny is the to radiator and which one is the from?

2. There is a plug in the passenger side floor board up close to the firewall, can I access the trans vent from tha hole?

Thanks for the help. I am headed to Beaver Springs FlashBack Friday this weekend and hope to run her a little bit. With 3:00 gears we won't be too quick for sure!

Thanks & God Bless,
Ed

I added the auxiliary automatic transmission cooler and changed out the original 4 blade fan with a hp 6 blade fan. Then I drove her 150 miles to Beaver Springs and raced her at their ‘Friday Night Flashback”. Had a blast!!! I then raced Saturday there. She ran great. However by my 2nd time trial run Saturday my left rear brake was grabbing. Found a rear wheel cylinder leaking. I didn’t have time/parts to fix her but will do so soon. The issue caused a rookie driver to look even more like a rookie! Only won one round, but had a great time. Beaver Bob puts on a AWESOME show!!!


God Bless,
Ed
