    Changed the temp sending unit, exhaust pipe gasket, thermostat gasket, touched up paint and have been driving her all day. So far (knock on wood) all is well!

    Split Rims

    Operation: Gertrude. Kendelrios M715 restoration thread

    Well, I had the "high speed" test yesterday. I'm proud to say she ran flawlessly! Speedo vs GPS speed, and the transmission/transfer case was in the sweet spot...
