1955 Buick Nailhead overheating problems? Thermostat, Radiator, or water pump... Whats the solution?
1955 Buick Roadmaster Sedan all original survivor with a 322ci Nailhead V8. The numbers matching original thermostat stuck... Car was running hot in the last video and I'm hoping this thermostat was to blame! Finally got the housing off and pulled the nasty old thermostat out. Pulled the radiator and flushed everything really well with the water hose. Can yall believe that Orielly Autoparts had the thermostat housing gasket in stock for a Buick Nailhead V8? Got her back together and fired up! Took the "Outlaw" for a spin around the neighborhood, she still got a little warm but not nearly as hot as before. Going to order a Chinesium Ebay aluminum radiator for the car and fix it so there's no worries. I couldn't help myself and had to spray paint the air cleaner with some VHT Gold engine enamel to give it that 70s Moroso look.
