SP radiator

[Donald Spithaler]

Austin
I took mine off 4 years ago & had it recored. I had some extra rows
put in but I can't remember if it was one or two. I had it done at a
rad shop that does all kind of rads.I think it was a little over
$400.00 but I took it out & put it back my self. Not a hard job. I
would put in new hose's while you have it out if that hasn't been done
lately I like to replace the hose's at the rad as they take
