Radiator....

Well, one headache after another.......

Just came back form the radiator shop and they won't guarantee a repair - it will only weaken the radiator.....Great something else I need to buy now.

Anyone have one for a 70' AT?

I didn't have them do anything since they didn't think the repair would last.

The radiator has leaks on both sides.

That just your tanks seals solder getting old. A good rad shop can re-core the rad and re-solder on the orig tanks with no leaks, guarenteed..

I just put a new radiator in my 81. I got a new 3 row radiator from Radiatorworld.com It cost me a total of $162.99 including shipping. It took 4 days to get to my house and it was a perfect fit.
