Water Pump Replacement in Stovebolt 235 1954 Chevy Pickup

We return to Sam, the 1954 Chevy pickup, to change out the water pump. It’s a lot of detail, maybe too much, but there are some useful tips and tricks along the way. If you’re focused on the job at hand, you can skip over the old pump disassembly. While it was entertaining, it was a dead end. Below are some links mentioned in the video. I don’t get compensated for any of these. I’m just passing them along because I think they’re useful. Huskey Rachet Combination Wrenches - https://www.homedepot.com/p/Husky-SAE...
