Car sounds good Heo. Radiator looks great. My uncle had a radiator shop, I worked there from 86-91 he did a lot of recores. I painted them when he was done. Then when he was done he went home. I was always there by myself. Your right Doug it’s a lost art.

Heo

Doug, Here is the whole "poster"

I got it from my younger sister she has a Media company and had some book
with famous advertisement with this picture in it so she blew it up and made a poster for me
It says  Everywhere you hear the same question.
Have you driven the new Ford V8 ? It is the first thing you See when you step in to my house
have to tease my Chevy friends ;D


Yes the Core was about 700 $ :o.
The work about 90$ i don't say anything about that
This guy is the closest to me now, 80 miles. Started in 75
so probably retired soon. It is the big machines like wheelloader
and trucks that keep him in business and occasionally some vintage
radiator there was a Ford-37 and a Packard-37 radiator there now

Sanded down top of the radiator support and gave it a quick spaybomb job
have to do over the summer.

Found a Ford meatclever in the barn but it was a ugly mof....have a better one someplace I put back the
stock one since i had no cooling issues and now i have a core with better performance
