$600 Radiator
Attachments :
That figure is just two bills and is almost certainly low. The radiator
was purchased over the phone from the East Coast and shipped to me. It (of
course) proved worthless. My buddy in the radiator business used the frame
and tanks and made a new core. Even the tanks were split and needed extensive
repair.
The plating shop sent the neck back with chrome and I made the shop send
it back. When they just dechromed it (while the shop driver waited) I got
suspicious and ran it down to Model Plating in Bell Gardens myself. They have
done all my plating on this project.
Come to think of it, maybe it's best NOT to add up the costs on a project
like this. It could get very depressing . . .
