Where exactly are you in Indy? I'd like to know who did the PPI before you bought it.

Looks like you need to remove the front coolant manifold, to access the coolant passage inside the block, to have a chance at a leakproof patch. Get a strip of galvanized sheet metal to use as a temporary surface inside the coolant passage until the JB weld sets up.

Hi, Brad I am in Evansville, IN and bought the car on a quick deal. I think when all is said and done, I got a fair deal on it. I've tracked the car with no problems so am just going to re-plug the holes.

As for the picture I robbed, I'm glad I found pelican and 986 forum for all the wealth of info. I've already placed a couple orders from pelican to replace my front motor mount, top cables, fuse cover, hood shocks, filters, brake bleeder etc.

All good projects so far. Next I get the bumper painted and it will be looking real good.
