  • new engine smoke

    Hey guys,

    thanks for the info already,I cranked the car today and let it run for 20-30 minutes,I noticed that the white smoke does smell like antifreeze,but I looked at me temp guage and it was normal,I then turned the car off and restarted it I then looked at the temp guage

    and it was all the way over to H, i have changed the fluids and all

    and they look good but I know now that it is a overheating problem,can anyone tell me what could be the possible causes of this problem?


    Thanks

    If you look this car up in the registry it says that it should

    be a coupe car, and not a fastback ,does that mean that this is a rebody?

    Hi Guys,

    I want to thank everyone for the input so far Ive already learned some new things about the cars,I was able to get the vin# for the car

    at forristalls,Is it possible to trace history,or authenticity of the car through the vin#?,is there a way to tell by vin# if the car

    was originally a GT, or if someone has cloned it,I also ordered the 4th edition 289 hipo book im sure it will help me alot,I would appreciate all the help and comments I can get on the car.

    the vin # is 5f09k697046 thanks again.

    Ive been looking at K codes for a while, and this car has been

    on FORRISTALLS website for a while, the owner is honest about the engine not being the original,but im new to this and I was wondering

    if anybody could tell me what they think about this car, is it a

    nice car to invest in or is there problems with it,I know there are alot of questions to be asked about the car, and you can only go by the pictures, but can anyone help me,Im not sure how to attach the car ad but the website is http://www.forristalls.com. thanks for any help and comments.
