I think I can make that work just fine. Thanks a lot Max.

I will post my address in a private message and maybe you could mail/courier/etc - whatever is easiest for you - and whatever you can bill to me.

Thanks again.

Kim57 · 03-11-2008, 05:56 AM

It looks pretty cool with the top gone. I still think it would make a cool roadster.

I picked up the floor piece today as I have been away and busy for a few days. It looks real good. Thank you very much. I hope to be able to get at it this weekend if the weather holds.

Has the snow melted yet? The snow here has melted that fell last weekend and now we are down to the snow that was left from winter...... will it ever end!

Did you find another roof?

Do you need a 4-core 57 rad or a 4-core 77 rad?

Either way, what I did on another project was take my 2-core rad to a local shop and had them recore it. Basically, they took the upper and lower tanks off the old one and put them on a new 4-core section.

I think it cost me between $100 and $200 in Calgary.

tiggerstoy · 05-29-2008, 04:04 PM

thanks ezekiel....after reading this, i went to the local rad shop and asked then some q, well, he said to give him the size and mounts and no matter what he would build it would be under 300.00 bucks, thanks again.........max.

tiggerstoy · 07-30-2008, 06:21 PM

well, got the new p.c, so i will post pics as soon as i get back to the shop and grab the camera.....max
