I have a 1963 Cruiser with the R-1 and automatic. I am currently rebuilding the brakes and suspension. While under the car I noticed fresh antifreeze on the bottom of the belllhousing.
While looking at that I noticed the exhaust manifold was broken. I removed the starter and manifold and could see where the antifreeze is coming from. On the side of the block between the back of the block and the 3rd 1 1/2 inch soft plug there is a small hole about 1/2 inch in diameter. With a little poking around the antifreeze start coming out much faster. Is this a small freeze plug? There is nothing listed at SI and I don't have a chassis book yet.
Thanks
