@jakedog – Does the car seem to ride high in the back? ...
I don’t think it rides high.
Does the car seem to ride high in the back?
@REG1 – Sorry to harp on your car running hot, but what temps are your gauges reading when it’s hot. Do you have to go park it, speed up or slow down. There should be a fix for the hot engine that can’t be good for the car over distance driving. Can you get more specific on the hot engine issue ...
No problem. I understand. What I meant by running hot is you feel warmth coming in at your feet. Now it has never over heated since I have owned it before the restoration or after the restoration. The radiator works perfectly. The water temp probably runs 185-190. Anyone that wishes to speak with the mechanic that restored the entire car from the bottom up, I can forward his name and number.

@REG1 – Can you confirm the AC is now working 100..% normal and blowing ice cold air. You also stated to another watcher that the car runs hot. How hot is hot, radiator gurgling hot or what. Can you elaborate on the issue please ...
The engine is approximately 450+hp according to my mechanic. The engine runs hot because it has a lot of horsepower. The radiator works perfect, there’s no gurgling. The AC is fixed. It was low on Freon and it had a faulty poly that was jumping the belt. Everything is working fine with the AC blowing cold air.

@Chucklesueur – Is it a stock radiator? ...
I do not know if that is the original radiator. I would assume that it is.

@Chucklesueur – How’s engine temperature on warm days or in traffic? ...
The engine has a lot of horsepower. With all that horsepower the engine runs hot.
