[T3] No Oil Cooler

[DGaries808@aol.com]

I took the other side of the engine tin off my Type 34, and guess what ... no 
oil cooler!
I guess I wasn't surprised, because who would have thought that the Type 3 
engine had an oil cooler on both sides. The A/C hoses got in the way of 
getting the 2nd engine tin off. But otherwise, no problems.

I sandblasted the first engine tin (the one that covered the oil cooler), a 
hookup that covers the A/C pulley, a front license plate bracket, and the 2nd 
engine tin. But the
air cleaner and a shroud in back of it were too long to fit in the 
sandblaster. I thought of springing for a "spot sandblaster" so I could 
sandblast the air cleaner and shroud.
Does anyone have any experience with a "spot sandblaster". Also, the cover 
over the
engine (about 1.5 feet x 3 feet) could use some sandblasting. 

I painted the first four parts black, and they look super.
