Radiator construction

I had an aftermarket 2 row aluminum radiator in my 68 when i plowed into a damn deer in the middle of the night in the middle of nowhere. The radiator was bent into a banana shape and the fan beat the **** out it before i got stopped. I bent the fan blades back and drove on home, no leaks. No way a brass one would have survived that. Im sold on the aluminum ones

Damn, that was lucky. I've seen deer stop a semi. I've seen an elk kill a guy and his wife and that bastard walked away and died about 500 yards off the road. It looked like that car hit a wall or something. We were the second people on the scene. It was horrible.

I've damn near hit elk on my dirt bike. They just don't care.
