I still remember fondly my Uncle "Polly" Limberg back home in Marshall, Texas re-coring, rodding, repairing leaks, pressure testing and painting in his radiator shop. It was one of 2 in town. It was hot, dirty, noisy work, but he was a true craftsman at his trade. He worked with his acetylene torch and a stick of silver solder over an absolutely NASTY vat of water where he would plug the inlet and outlet and apply air to test for leaks. Bygone days, but very fond memories.
