cloudmaster's Journal: More car problems

Sigh. The transmission cooler line blew out. I had soldered a replacement fitting in to the radiator, and built up a layer of JB-Weld around it. But that's inadequate, so it seems. So I've bought a torch (my little propane torch running mapp gas didn't get hot enough, so I've got a real cutting torch now) and brazing rods, and will be fixing it right this time. It's a bit of a pain having the car covered with transmission fluid... It does run reasonably well, though, so it should sell.

I'm sanding the car down today, too, and hope to have it painted by week's end. There'll be pictures when it's done... :)
