Hi All,
Wondering if some of you can help with advice. Two issues. 1. The oil cooler i have here was installed before the PO even got the car. So it's been on there about 7 years at least. I do not currently have a temp gauge on the car but am looking to fit one as funds allow. There is NO factory cooler fitted. I dont drive it on really hot days, only up about 90F. Should i be concerned about this setup ?? 2. the dreaded rot. This is what i can see. Rust in the sail ( and some small lumps under the vinyl where the holes are). There has been a previous repair too as some of what is lifting appears to be filler. What would be the best way to repair this , Should i be ordering sails from Restoration Design and having them put in, or should i just have it cut out and patched. What is the general concensus ?? Given this rust, where else shuld i look, does this rust go hand in hand with another area ?? I know it's a big unknown , but im just trying to get a general feel for what i might expect.
