Couple of neet cars at my work.

48 Buick Roadmaster. It has a 425 Nailhead in it. Customer took the hood off before bringing it to us. I guess the hood is a pain to try to work around.

This one rolled up today and threw up it's coolant in our lot.

67 Mustang GT500 with a 428.

My dad had a 1967 Mustang Sedan that was dark green with a white vinyl roof - it was basically the same shade as this one.

Awesome car - don't see too many original 428-powered Shelby's around anymore....

Sure have had some interesting stuff roll into the shop this week. This came in today.

It looks like there's a nice '92 or '93 Iris/Silver F-150 with a factory roll pan too.

That F150 is on it's last legs. He overheated it untill it quit. When it rolled of the tow truck the engine temp was still 315F. Truck is beat to youy know where. Don't even have a rear window.

I logged enough miles in a 67 Mustang to be blase' about the Shelby, but the Buick is way cool, especially the color keyed bumpers.

I like the frame on the tag of the Buick too. I wouldn't kick either car out of bed.

That's too bad. As hideously '90s as they are, there's just something cool about Iris colored F-150s with factory roll pans.

Wow.....very nice. The engine is the Buick looks well done.

Then a real Shelby rolls in. Too sweet!!

1. Defective radiator cap that won't hold pressure. Those Stant caps with the red levers are nothing but trouble.

2. Customer keeps filling the radiator all the way up to the top so that it throws up coolant out of the overflow tube when he turns it off.

I cleaned the neck where the radiator cap seals, Installed a new cap and lowered the cold coolant level since the car does not have a recovery system.

I blocked the radiator air flow and let it run untill it was 240F then shut it off. Cap held pressure and it didn't throw up.
