Great to join this group. Working on a 3800 Panel Wagon pulled out of the woods. The engine oil was mixed with radiator fluid but it turns over nicely. Needs some body work and rust is a problem in a few small areas. Excited about getting started! My first time working on a Chevy!

Welcome to the “Bolt”! Looks like a nice solid project. With water in the oil, you’ll definitely need to pull the head to check for a blown head gasket or worse yet, cracks. Post that question in the “Engine” forum and you’ll get some expert advice! Good luck and again welcome!
