1965 Chrysler 300: Engine Removal

Filed under: Car Service — Tags: , , , , , — nick @ 7:05 am

We pulled the 383 out of the ’65 300 today, only to make an unfortunate discovery once it was out. The water jacket on the engine looks as though it froze and blew out a section of the water jacket wall. What, no freeze plugs?

Fixing a few Odds and Ends on a 1965 Austin Healey BJ8

Filed under: Car Service — Tags: , , , — noah @ 2:26 pm

This Austin Healy 3000 BJ8 just came in for a spring check up and some new rear leaf springs. This Healey was rotisserie restored about a year ago and is about as nice as they come. With a few tweeks she’ll be back on the road in no time for some Spring driving.
