Radiator ready for install

Post by T. Highway »

I got my radiator back on Friday from the repair shop. There was nothing seriously wrong with it but I had it boiled out, the fins straightened, pressure checked and painted.

Looks like new now and should be good for years to come.

I got this done at a shop that has been in the radiator biz since the late 40s. I have taken many radiators and oil coolers to them because of the quality of the workmanship. The prices are always fair and the quality of repair is always top notch.

Bert,
Where did you take it ? Looks like they did a good job. I have to get mine done and I was thinking about Wedige over in Elkhorn. Thats where I take all of my radiators from my shop.

Thats a fine looking radiator. It is nice to have an -old time, reputable shop to take it to. Not many of those left.
