Yes,i think i will order that 160 degree thermostat since this car will mainly be for the warmer months.As for the hoses,when i first got pecked by the bird back in 1990,i removed,(or should i say broke) all of the old heater hoses and changed them out.I did take notice of a praticular snotlike substance inside them that used to be coolant.So before i even think about taking this car outside the garage,i will have run about a gallon of prestone superflush thru the system for 20mins and then once more again with mostly water.There also is a product out there called 40 below that is is used in place of antifreeze.Anyone out there ever use it? Also,anyone need a free 5 gallon container of varnish(old gasoline) theres no way id try to start this car with this mess inside the tank.It be perfect for new wood furniture but it stank too much.Last question,since i have removed the carburetor,how can i tell if it is a ford,autolite or holley type and is it worth my time to rebuild it or is there a much better new alternative out there.

This thread, so far...
