Re: What did you do with your truck today, Part 3

Well, for the most part the landscaping on the new house is finished. So now its truck time. Saturday I walked out in the garage and the oid girl - the truck not my wife !! must have wanted some attention because there was a big puddle of coolant under the front end. I knew the radiator was old and had some small leaks, but this was huge. Fortunatly I had a spare radiator in storage, so today I dug it out & got it installed. Ran it for about 1/2 hr and didnt have any leaks. Hope it holds.
I did talk to a local radiator shop who will rebuild mine - coper / brass performance at a fair price. So off to the shop it goes tomorrow. Hope to have a completly rebuilt radiator soon. Then off to other things.
