Default DeWitts Group Purchase

Many people have told me they are holding out for a sale, so here it is.

1. You get 10% discount off any radiator or combination kit
2. Free shipping to 48 states
3. You must purchase from the website to receive this special
4. Enter the letters CFGP somewhere in your name line to qualify

IE John CFGP Doe

International customers are eligible to receive the discount but must pay freight. Our order form is designed for USA address format but you can fudge the real address into the fields and just pick Michigan for the state.

NOTE: The website has automatic order acknowledgement and this will not show the discounted price or the free shipping. DO NOT CALL TO QUESTION THIS! We will ID all orders by the CFGP and apply the discount on our end, you will not be charged the acknowledge amount.

Sale ends March 15th 2009

Who do you use to ship to Canada, and any idea of the cost to postal code L3S1R7?

Thanks

I bought one of your radiators last year. It didn't cool properly so I brought it to a mechanic to have it diagnosed. After several hours we came to the conclusion that I forgot to fill it with coolant and that along with the disconnected lower hose was the problem. Now it cools too much, and I had to spring for a new thermostat to get up to operating temp. The mechanic charged me $800 and I am sending you a copy for reimbursment.

Sorry, Just kidding.

I did buy one from you last year and I couldn't be more satisfied with it.
Thanks for a great product.

I know that's a problem. UPS really rips you off and it's too large for mail. We could try BAX global, they give us good rates overseas.

Would be worth a try.
When I place the order I'll use my office address because i think Bax only ships to businesses.
UPS is just unbelievable

Oh, i was not aware that they used copper/brass for the 66 427 cars. Small blocks get the more efficient radiators-that doesnt make any sense to me.

GM was in the "save money" mode and changed to copper radiator for cost reasons. They stayed with them until 1982. Aluminum came back in 84 and never left again

Tom- I also need a dated expansion tank (I have a terrible story about the new one I have in the box here)... I do not see an option for dating your tanks on your site.

Is this not offered?
