Just bought a 77 L82 that needs help!
I just bought a 77 L82. It looked good but after driving it to Crusin The Coast. The paint on the hood started to crack and bubble up. Running at 3500 rpm I was only traveling at 65 mph. I have a lot of hydrolic stearing fluid and engine oil leaks too. The leaks are to be expected on a 40 year old car but not the paint problems. I just guess some put a cheep paint job on it to mak a quick sale. Still like the car, it just going to take a lot of additional work I had not planned on. Any advice?
