Its been sitting indoors for about 35 years and needs a new radiator. My radiator shop said they were unable to repair. Anyone know a guy. I appreciate any feed back. | | | | | Joined: Sep 2010 Posts: 2,333 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Sep 2010 Posts: 2,333 | You should be able to find a new one check online , surprised the shop did not want to price one out for you .Don’t go back to that shop . | | | | | Joined: Mar 2007 Posts: 4,217 Moderator | | Moderator Joined: Mar 2007 Posts: 4,217 | Welcome Tucker. My local rad shop guy said he liked working on the old rads. I'm with Kevin, there must be another rad shop nearby. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2021 Posts: 3 Moderated | | Moderated Joined: Nov 2021 Posts: 3 | I should clarify. The shop did offer an option. Quite pricey. Was looking to see if there were any other leads out there. I will try a couple other shops.

(The over flow is far below the cap) I flushed mine out and shook it upside down to get the chunks of rusty metal out of it over 15 years ago and I've put about 3000 miles on it since and haven't had a problem. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2018 Posts: 2,450 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Dec 2018 Posts: 2,450 | Tucker Todd Would stay away from re-cores,usually ends in hard to fix seam leaks around tanks. Anyway mine did,about a year in. | | |
