The Rattacuda was born .

its hard to find a GOOD 50 years old radiator. Joplin rad. shop been there 60 years, the guy told me. rad dry rot from sitting without coolant in them.

if your rad has no leakis, maybe just b=needs a good cleaning. rad shops can take them apart and rod them out IF their are good enough condition to begin with. let us know what that Tide does. interesting.
I have not found a new one ether . . Im scard if i do . its going to cost alot of coin lol
